{Random Thoughts Here, feel free to add...}
I spent some time in a meeting creating my "days left" Excel spreadsheet calendar, anguishing over whether to start with today and just do next cell = prev cell minus one, or start with last work day, cell =0 and all previous add one. I chose the latter.
84 work days left.
When I tell people I am retiring many ask me "How old are you??". I find it amusing because my wife has been asking me that for decades, but usually doesn't have anything to do with retiring.
In meetings, the term "FY2017" shuts down my attention span in nanoseconds.
I don't worry about what I am going to do with my time. I have always had far more interests that I had time to spend with them and, prioritized, "W*rk" never was very high on that list.
A former boss of mine recently said, "Yeah, work has always been kind of an inconvenience for you, hasn't it?"
I just made a 1 week vacation in Europe next summer into a 2 week vacation. Because I could.
I paste the attached picture into interoffice chat conversations often.
I will miss seeing some good friends every day. Many are also getting "dispersed" due to a megacorp re-org, but we have vowed to meet for lunch a couple times a month.
I have cut my own hair since 1994.
