A lot of people I know that retired in the late '90's like I did have died also and working in the same area that they did I'm afraid to completely retire seems like there's a jinx on us. The first one to go died in a tractor roll over accident and he'd been farming for years on that land.

I've been doing the retirement thing for a couple of years now. It didn't take me long to realize it's what I always wanted to do! I have nightmares occasionally dreaming that I have to get up and go to work.

Sometimes I get the urge to do some serious work. But I found that if I just take a long nap, that urge will pass. No problem.

I retired 6 years ago.... I am werking on being a Ole Geezer now and loving it.

hung it up in 98 been GREAT
