38 days to retirement

In 38 days I will begin my adventure into retirement.  I’m excited and feeling very ready.  I thought it was going to be difficult to leave my job, but I don't feel that way at all today.  I'm am very ready and anxious to start the adventure.  I've always had difficulty waiting for things.  I embrace change and once I know a change is coming, I want to go for it.  I know the 38 days will go quickly, and I'm glad of that.  I also think it's going to become difficult for me to concentrate on the job.  I've already experienced a bit of that today.  I will need to keep myself very busy and ensure I don't have time to dwell on the future while at work.

Funny thing is, I'm not really thinking much about it at all.  I love lists and planning and setting goals and yet I've not actually made any lists or plans for what I will do once I retire.  Perhaps that's for the best, since the more I think about it, the more anxious I may get to be there.

Changing the subject for a minute, we bought a new Jeep this week.  We traded in our old Detonator Yellow Rubicon for a brand new Flame Red Rubicon.  I'm hoping we can do a  trail this weekend and get it a bit broken in and dirty.  It's beautiful!
