A couple of phenomena you may notice:
1) Chores you think you need to do you will find yourself saying--"Oh why worry about it, I can always do that tomorrow."
2) Many times you will have to go look at the calender to remember what day of the week it is.
Congratulations. If my kids didn't go to school, I would never know if it was the weekend or not. In the summer, when they're home, I DON'T ever know when it is the weekend.
Later, I have a chore to do---never mind, I can do it tomorrow.
You prepared well, planned well, and made use of the opportunites we all have to so order your affairs to allow you to make this work to retirement choice. It is a wonder why so many, with the same opportunities we have, choose to squander their chances with shortsighted choices.
And go see your still working compatriots from time to time and rub it in. If any get irked, lower the boom on them and tell them how they squandered the same chances you had.
Enjoy this new phase of your life you made possible for yourself.
