You will see that I have been a member here since 2006. I have been planning my early retirement since well before that. But as things have gone, I am still working. Having now turned 65 there is nothing "early" about my status. But I am determined to be semi-retired.
I am a fee for service lawyer running now a very solo practice. I have no employees, free rent and with modern technology can easily practice on my own. I also have no problem turning down work which might be too much of a hassle.
But the confusion: I feel that I am neither fish nor fowl. I am not free from the work so when I am not working or am away it stays on my mind. When I am working, I kinda resent the intrusion on what should be my free time.
The practice is too easy to walk away from. But too annoying to live with comfortably.
So to my semi-retired friends, or anyone else kind enough to chime in. How do you handle this situation. Any hints for me.
Thanks always. Zman
