Welcome to semi retirement, I adapted fairly well to full retirement in the past year. I'm sure you too will enjoy retirement and will have few issues adapting!

Thanks, LindaSue! It's going to be different, but I'm looking forward to many aspects of it for sure.

Congratulations!! I am so happy for you! It is a bittersweet ending I am sure, you've made a difference in many lives! But, knowing you, you will not lack for things to do or people to see in semi-retirement! If you are looking to take up painting in the future, just let me know.amd I'd.be happy to help you. Lol! Also, add me to your gig list please! :)

Thanks Chris! It's a new beginning, and I hope I have. I have time to do many things and that's the plan. Well, we are talking about painting the living room, hallway, and kitchen; maybe I could use your help! I'll add you to the gig list, hopefully you can make a few.

Thank you for your very thorough run down of your life and pleasures! I wish you many happy and fulfilling years of semi and full retirement!

Yes, it is a good feeling and of course mixed with feelings of loss of some favorite clients and sessions!

However, now you can enjoy all the places you've been meaning to visit and the people you'd like to allot more time to enjoy!

Good Luck and Happy Days and Years ahead! Keep your good heart and friendships!

Thanks! I don't want to put anything or anyone off. It will be a busy "retirement."
