I used to be known as Want2retire on this forum, but today is my retirement day so I had my username changed. Since so many people call me W2R for short, it seemed like a good choice. Besides, "Wonderful2Retire" is just too long to suit me!
I have completed my "to do" list here at work and have erased it off my whiteboard. All I have left to do is to turn in my badge, parking permit, and exit clearance on the way out the door.
It is SO FANTASTIC to make a long term plan and to finally implement it! I really appreciate the support all of you have given me through the years.
And as for the inevitable "How does it feel?":

Congrats!! I want to know if your countdown clock counting days to go was automated or did you, with glee and eager anticipation, do that manually every day. Better grab some rocks so you don't float away in exhilaration. Enjoy!
