Retiring in December

It's officially official! My actual last day of work will be December 18th but official retirement is December 31st. DH was a high school principal and retired 3 years ago. It's my turn now. I'm grateful for an amazing nursing career but can't wait to be on my time schedule for a change.

To think we can travel at times we choose to travel, for as long as we want...or until health or money runs out. Oh happy days!

Retirement, nothing to do but clean the rv again, sit in a chair and watch weather, sleep late, go to bed early. Oh the abuse we are forced to put up with. Congrats, john

Way to go. My wife and I still have a ways to go :-( but we are happy to have good jobs and realize we will get there in awhile. Enjoy your new upcoming schedule.

Congratulations. Truly a momentous occasion. I've been retired since May and the only downside I've found is that I sometimes forget what day of the week it is.
The freedom has been exhilarating. Enjoy!

When I retired almost 5 years ago my watch quit the first week. Decided to not replace it and haven't missed having one at all ! Wishing you the best.

Just remember when you start traveling, you have to quit thinking you are on vacation. You have plenty of time to see and do things. Don't rush it.

Congratulations from Colorado. The time flies, enjoy the journey. This year alone we traveled in 17 states, and we aren't full timers. If you come through Colorado, give a shout.

Thanks all. It seems odd planning trips with open departure and arrival dates, no more working around a set work schedule. Feeling very blessed. Hope all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
