Retirement journey

I did it!  I gave my notice at work.  I'm going to retire.  No more badges, deadlines or alarm clocks.  The plan is to sell my now very expensive townhouse and move to a smaller less expensive place with a view of trees.  I thought I'd start capturing my thoughts here as I go through the process of transitioning from a worker to a retiree.  So far, my only regret is that no one has said, "but you look too young to retire!" ah well.  So let the count down begin...4 more days of work, then on to the next phase of life.
