Retired Living
Rules

1. Once retired most rules are optional.
2. If it looks like work, go back to bed.




[reserved for retired rules]
[Find a neat rule, post it and we can move/add it to the rules in post #2]

Life begins once retired. Congrats to those are already enjoying it. I’ve got another 5 years to get to that point. I try to work hard with my TSP and among other things to make sure I can live comfortably when I retire.

Ive got 30 years... :/ I cant wait...

I got 9 more years to retire. I'm an old man so hopefully, I will have some energy left to enjoy my retirement... If I do get bored, I will open up a business (I actually have something in mind). But for now, my goal is to travel and be a bus driver for my kids (they'll be in high school by then).

Where to retire?

Do choose a place you like! That has other retired folks around. The more the better! This was a project that lasted the last 6 or 7 years.

Six ladies came over this evening, my wife's quilting buddies. They are also working on a recipe book. So ever week they try them out at one another's home's. I had never had food that different and that good before. I'd missed the other times being working on investigations....

Tomorrow is siding day. My neighbor is a retired boarder patrolman. He's getting some upgraded trim (low maintenance) installed on his house (a 3-day job). So I guess we will have to fire up the BBQ and get plenty of beer!.... We'll critique their construction efforts, also!......

...of the guys doing the siding, or of the ladies constructing the quilts???

Question?
It seems that my "Honey Do List" has been increasing!........... ?

The honey do list never ends does it? Seems like the only break I get is when I go to work. Retirement almost seems scary.

Honey Do list, honey do list! It's getting where I hate the weekends, wish I could work Overtime the whole weekend, then I might get a little rest. Thats why men die before their wifes.

Where to retire?
Seems like Florida or Texas would be the best for retirees, no state income taxes.
But for cost of living, I would think that asia would be better for those of us that would like to live on the cheap.

Maybe I can finally get caught up on the lawn.;-)
