Hello Everyone--
This was originally moved to Best of Boards & we (RE Wahoo & I) felt it could have more participation from the members here about preparations done or to do in getting ready for that gorious day!!!!!!
I originally said:
As I am moving closer to ER I began to think back about my own preparations and wondered what they rest of you did/do.
I paid off my house and put in a swimming pool to help keep arthritis at bay and to help with low impact exercising. We have also joined a health club. We have paid off both cars and have installed many new appliances in the house--new furnace & AC, garbage disposer, water heater, etc. I am changing my glass-paned front door to a solid wood for privacy & security and installed a pvc fence around the backyard to replace the termite-riddled wooden one.
I am getting wife's caps done since I won't have dental ins. We have bought some casual clothes including shorts, knit shirts and deck shoes--on sale of course. We are stocking up on items on sale--wine, detergent, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, etc. And the credit card is paid in fiull each month.
We are trying to be smart and sensible.
The Professor
