    Today is my first official day of retirement. Friday, April 22 was my last day worked and I had to use up the rest of my vacation.

    Now the real work begins!

    Good for you. I'm jealous but will join the ranks in 11 months. Hope you have many years of time as your own boss.

    Congrats. I am jealous of you. I invited all of my students to my retirement party. It will be held right after the funeral.
