Free at Last

[Culture]

Six weeks ago I notified all of my clients that I would no longer accept new assignments after June 30. Today is the day! From this point forward my work load will slowly decrease to zero.

Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty I am free at last! (with apologies to Dr. King)

Congrats - hopefully it winds down smoothly and relatively quickly.

Congratulations, do you have a final date target when workload becomes zero?

Congratulations. I stopped working "officially" April 4th. I am so busy with other things I don't know how I did it all while working.

I am loving retirement, hope you do too!

Enjoy!

Thanks everyone. I do not feel retired yet as my schedule was booked solid through the end of July, but I know it is coming and that makes a difference!

Congratulations Culture, if you're booked in July how long will it take at part time before real retirement sets in?

I will start seeing open time in my schedule the first week of August, and it will tail off to about 70-80% free by the end of the year. Unfortunately, some of my consulting jobs will drag on another couple of years. I am OK with that as long as I only work 1-2 days a week.
