    Running around with the wife today doing some shopping and gas is up to $1.99. That sucks. Going to hurt those that aren't getting paid and still have to go to work.
    May the force be with us.

    True, but you are budgeted for once a month and probably don't drive as much now that you are retired.

    Exactly.

    This is really obvious stuff, but it probably needs to be said here:

    A paycheck based upon two weeks--to an active employee is not the same as a retirement check based upon one month--to a retiree.
    Some Federal employees make less than others.
    Some Federal employees haven't been on the job for very long.
    Some Federal employees have a higher cost of living than others.

    As a result of the above points, some Federal employees don't have half a years' salary saved up.

    I can empathize with them because I realize I don't have to make it about me and what I've been able to accomplish.

    Seems you can too. Bravo!
