I'm not exactly sure when I knew it was time to retire. About a year ago I started working from home four days a week and in the office for one day (Monday usually). I enjoyed being at home and started really considering retirement - then at a point I knew it was time to wrap my career up. Perhaps it was when Laura told me she was pregnant with #2.
I have a few goals - I intend to make my spiritual growth my highest priority. I want to write a book. I want to volunteer in my community. I want to recreate my Grandmother's gardens. Perhaps travel the world. I want to learn to make pies - really good pies.
I want to share my family history with my grandchildren - the same history my grandparents shared with me. I want them to know about their ancestors and I want them to know about me. I want to teach them what the names of the stars are and I want to watch sunrises and sunsets with them sitting next to me.
I'm really excited for the days to come...
