Update on my personal early retirement journey - my replacement has been stretched too thin between his old position and the new one, so the learning's been a little slow. However, he's committed to a renewed emphasis on "taking the reins" once he returns from PTO tomorrow. We'll see.... has no impact on my plans!
Progress has been made!
Really, REALLY starting to feel real now... 11/1 is 48 calendar days away! Wow, that was literally my first realization that I'm under 50 days! w00t!!
Progress has been made!
- Post-retirement medical insurance application completed and submitted
- Early retirement application completed, to be notarized at the pool today, and submitted tomorrow
- I became a "heart patient" this year (no event, just test results), so I just ordered 90 days worth of statins (while I still have the old insurance)
- Got my wellness check in Friday for my small HSA kickback. (Actually was a followup for said heart condition, but doc generously offered to code it as a wellness check)
- Got my final, covered annual eye exam scheduled in time
