I retired early and went into “semi-retirement”.
I cleaned up my tools and starting working on bikes and cars again. But I still work occasionally to pay the bills.
The big thing is.. I moved. To a more rural place where my bills were 1/4 what they used to be.
Now I cook all the time, make my own bread / butter / ice cream / everything and volunteer to many things - but not too much of one thing. Sometimes for the historical society, sometimes I teach classes at the annex.
Basically, I do whatever I want. But I haven’t even had an alarm clock in my bedroom, or clock for that matter, in 7 years.
funny how that clock thing works, eh ?
