Well, my first day of official retirement is mostly completed. It went well, I think.

I took care of chores and things early this morning, then scrubbed a bathroom. Spent a fair bit of my day doing assorted chores outside, cleaning the front porch, watering a few plants, staging equipment for larger gardening projects that start tomorrow. The day's biggest accomplishment was installing a new awning top on a 10' metal gazebo on the back patio. It's something that is removed in the Fall, then reinstalled after the last chance of snow is over. This year I bought a new one. It looks great, and now I'll have a dry place to stand if it's raining while I wait for my dogs to finish their business in the yard. Small victories. :) Dinner is done, kitchen cleaned up, watching the evening news and surfing the web a bit. Checking back with my Tug family to let you all know I survived the ordeal of this first day.

Whew - this retirement thing is exhausting! LOL! I need to slow down, or I'll run out of things to do. (Yeah, right!)

Dave, happy
I find I have less time to do things since I retired. Never figured out why.

I can see that. As I was doing things today, I thought, "Gee, I could do that, too." Things I postponed while working full time are now things that can be dealt with. :)

Ok, Dave, you’ve got to work harder at NOT working!
