I retired in 2011, and most days wonder how I ever had time for work!

Congrats!

Congratulations, Joe.  If your retirement is like mine, you'll have more projects, repairs, and little jobs to do than you ever imagined.

Thats great.  Enjoy it and stay busy!  I am 37 and can't wait for that day I can wake up and my only decision will be if I am going to hunt or fish.
