Off to work but wishing we were there. Fun
Walking away is better than leaving feet first on a gurney. At one point in your life you got to say enough is enough. I retired a year ago and sure I miss the paychecks but you got to realize we're in the 4th quarter and looking at the light at the end of the tunnel. Like the song "The Gambler" says, "You got to know when to fold them, you got to know when to walk away".
