Good for you. I have another 20 years before I can retire and 2 years before I can reduce my work week to 5 days a week from 6.

The first thing on my bucket list is a sewing retreat in 3 years.

I'm eligible for my full govmt. pension in 23 days! I'm not resigning my part time job though until I see if we can live on our combined pensions. Wouldn't it be wonderful if I could use all my work income as MAD money? I'd actually be happy to go to work.

I gave 4 months notice when I retired in Aug. 2009. The time flew by with so much to do finding a replacement and training her. Happy retirement! It's so great!

I retired November 2009. I gave a three month notice. The time did go by quickly and I have never looked back. The time was right for me.

Congratulations and enjoy!

Retirement is wonderful. It seems I have less time to get things done than when I was working. It must be I'm not as organized, but there are at least two days a week I can devote to quilting. I love it and you will too. Congrats
