Oh, that's exciting. Congrats to you and Fireboy, too Bare. :wine:

What great news! So anxious to meet everyone that is making that big move and those that have been enjoying it for years! We officially hand over the keys to our place the 30th April and will be RV'rs until we committ to that final home in TV. We might have to do some traveling before we do that but expect it will happen much faster than we plan. We have been in hustle mode it seems since we decided to sell and move to Fl, never expecting it to happen so fast. Good luck selling your place once you get it on the market!

Although will start working Monday on the house, getting it ready for the market. So will do about 3 days a week of hard labor for the next 3 or 4 months. So retired officially, but working for myself a bit longer. Doesn't seem to have sunk in yet, but am sure it will by Monday.
I've just retired, too! I agree, it will take some time to sink in. Celebrated on Friday night with some neighbors here in Florida's Friendliest Home Town. Can't believe how lucky I am to be retiring and living in paradise.

Best wishes to you -- congrats on your retirement! :clap2:

Thank you all so much for all your well wishes and kind words. Mrs l2, S, will not retire or leave until we have the house in VA sold and then we will see how much longer she would have to work to make it mean something. I have told her to leave any time, but she is the practical one. So we will see once the VA home is sold.
