Learning how to retire one day at a time

Five guys posted to Atlee High School on this Saturday with temperatures in the low 30s. Compared to what the forecast is like this upcoming week, the 34 degree temperature felt like it was sunny and 70. This is a somewhat accurate account of what the beatdown was.

Great job today everybody with this challenging workout. Last night, YHC was with an old neighbor who had recently been laid off into retirement. YHC asked Corned Beef when he was planning on retiring. CB said his job doesn’t really have retirement, but a friend advised him to start taking a day off here and there. He said on Thursday, he took the day off. He then expanded on this discussion with Bulkhead. From a distance, YHC believes he talked about taking a week and going to Florida as well as one other place. Helix then said to me, “Did he just say Nairobi?” That is what YHC heard as well.

As we all get closer to retirement, this plan of learning how to retire one day at a time might be best. Instead of working 40 – 60 hours a week and then stopping all together, starting taking a day here and a day there. Over time, take a few more days or even a week and slowly start stepping away. Sounds like a great plan.

Afterwards, we gathered at The Local Cup with Opus joining us for the 2nd F.

Announcements – Frozen Triangle – February 8 – See Pre-Blast.

Have a great day everybody!
