BenJustman (npub153x…ryu8) asked the other day “What does your retirement look like?”

For me, being retired after 30+ years, it’s all about spending my time as I want to, no longer at the whim of someone else.

I can stay up until 4 am on Sunday because I’m working on one of my projects and “Monday” doesn’t matter anymore.

I can wake up at 2 pm the next day.

And at 4:30 pm, I can sit in my backyard, playing with art stuff, while the unretired are getting ready to leave work and sit in rush hour.
