One month in

The first month of semi-retirement has come and gone. It has been an unusually warm and dry spell, so gardening is going well. Veg is growing, and flowers are in full bloom. The front garden is a building site as I have gone for a complete strip-out and replant. Prep time for this is going to be extensive, but it will be completed for next Spring, all going well.

I have also achieved my Amateur Radio license, and I am working on setting up a High Frequency Antenna and a separate VHF/UHF antenna.  Planning rules make this a bit challenging, as does the limited garden size.

I am already running out of available time, but enjoying every minute.

Retirement arrives

As of this week, I am working part-time to hand over my job role.  Frees up a bit of time to get on with other things.

Already running out of time to fit everything else in.

The mild spring weather has moved gardening to the top of list while I sort the other items  on  my to-do list.

Where did the time go?

It has dawned on me that I am 24 months from State Retirement Age. That crept up quicker than I thought and does beg the question, where did the time go?

Pity, it coincides with high inflation and near-zero growth in GDP, but it is time to make some plans.

I have quite a list of things I want to do in the remaining time on the planet 🙂

So the retirement planning starts now
