I am now officially retired. That doesn’t mean I’m done working but it does mean I’m taking some time off.<\/p>\n
It felt really strange coming home yesterday knowing I don’t have a job. I would be very scared if I didn’t have 2 things going for me. One, I’ve got a really good pension from Hughes\/Boeing. Two, I’ve got a pretty good skill from those 21 1\/2 years at Hughes\/Boeing so I will be able to work again in a few months.<\/p>\n
I’m taking off at the very least 2 or 3 months and the most 5 or 6. I’ll probably get bored soon but I do have some stuff to keep me busy around here. I’ve got a bathroom that needs to be painted and have a new floor and I’ve got a workbench in my garage that I haven’t seen in years.<\/p>\n
I also think I will take my wife to Hawaii in a few months. We would like to see it before we aren’t able to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
