Title: Walkin Papers Post by Ruttly on 02/04/23 at 09:26:20 Got my retirement papers just showed up. Got a folder with all the necessary docs ready to go. I’m lookin at the calendar , Maybe July , All my pensions are vested. Pick the day and then burn all my floaters , sick days , vacation, about six or seven weeks worth. I see about six or more tool boxes there , some retire and leave their tools behind. I’ll be takin mine home to clean and sell them.I have enough tools for working 2 jobs and enough to work on the side at home as well. So I’ll be having a garage sale(s) after I retire. Freedom is near. ::) |

Title: Re: Walkin Papers Post by Dave on 02/04/23 at 18:38:05 Congratulations! I have been retired 7 months, and I love it! I get to fix my problems instead of everyone else's! Today I cut air vents in a new windshield and got it mounted, then put Caswell fuel tank liner in the Trail 110 auxiliary fuel tank, took a nap, and then went out to dinner with friends. When the growing season starts I will have less time to work in the garage - but for now I am in the garage every day working on something. |

One of the problems that I had with a job.....is that when the "good" days came along for doing the outdoor work at home - I had to go to work. Now when the days come along that are good for cutting firewood, mowing the grass, scrubbing the buildings, etc. - I can "Get'r Done". When the bad weather days are here - I can hide out in the garage and get those things done. And.....when the good riding days come along - I can ignore the work! :) |

Title: Re: Walkin Papers Post by bobert_FSO on 02/05/23 at 18:38:57 When I retired (2012), Sunday evening instantly became my favorite time of the week-- because I would say to myself, "Hey, I don't have to go to work in the morning." I still feel that way. |

Title: Re: Walkin Papers Post by Ruttly on 02/09/23 at 20:07:57 Dave I was serious I don’t think anyone I was related to has either moved away or passed and my father took all that with him when he passed. Relaxe do you think I would skip an opportunity to ride with Super Dave do ya. My sister says maybe some in Oregon/ Washington but that was 20 years ago,not very promising. Like I said sooner or later , the planets will align for us and hopefully as a group. Are you familiar with fssnoc , ok here we go , four stroke singles national owners club. A group I watch but I’m not a member they have two or three rides a year east & west rides in different locations every year so more can attend a ride. We could do that too and maybe a east meets west at Pikes Peak , oh yeah I could scratch 2 at once off the old bucket list and go to jail for racing on the PEAK all in a day. Never stop dreaming !!! It could happen |
