1. Congratulations! A perfect retirement date.

2. Woohoo! Enjoy!

   Maybe you can work part-time in that nice quilt shop, for fun, and to help people.

3. Thanks, Jim! Let’s hope it all goes smoothly!

4. Thanks, Katherine!

   I don’t think I could work retail – I’m far too snotty. If anything, I could consider ESL as I loved teaching it.

   I am so thrilled to have made the decision. It’s like getting married in a way – it changes your live-in relationship when you get married, and now it’s like I’m gonna get paid to play. Sounds good enough to me!

5. Congratulations! I’m a bit jealous as I’ve got 7 years to go!

6. Thanks, Fraggy! What is retirement age in England?

7. 67

8. Congratulations. Enjoy 🙂

9. Thanks, Faye! More time to sew, paint, play and get into trouble. 😉

10. ESL would be nice. But take some time to just enjoy being off for a while!

    I have a friend who, last year, got pushed out of a teaching job a few years too early. She’s now working part-time in a Montessori school, where the kids actually want to learn, and enjoying it very much.

11. I like ESL. They are adults and eager to learn, as well as respectful of the teacher. (Administrators are not, in my school at least.) My retirement pension requires a 6 month absence from working in any situation where an employee can contribute to the retirement fund (PERS and STRS). After that, hours are restricted to 920 / year I think, so part time could be the only way. Meanwhile, time to play!

12. Six months to play and think about things sounds like an excellent plan!

13. Have the fun you’ve earned!

14. Thank you, Anne! I’m already digging it!

15. Enjoy!!

16. You bet!
