I did it. I sent off the last notice, so it's official.........I'm retiring from my job in June. I feel a huge surge of relief and only a tad of anxiety.
I won't NOT work, just not at the same job I've been doing for the last 33 years. (I can't believe it's been that long!!! I started when I was 6!!! HA!)
Life as I know it might change a bit....or I might decide to change it totally. Not feeling like I really have to pin it down at this point.
I would have liked a few more of the bills to be paid off prior to making this move, but timing is everything and if I didn't quit in June, there wasn't going to be a GOOD time.
I'm hoping some of my brain cells regenerate, living with autistic kids has taken a toll..........
no turning back

Change is so incredibly hard...especially when it leads us to a bid unknown...but think back...have you ever made a change that didn't work out for the best???
Now take a deep breath, and start planning for your 'new' future!

How will you spend your time? Will you take a breather for a while, stop and 'smell the roses' or just switch careers?
