Retirement - the last day!
This is my last day at Progressive. I will only be at work for a few hours - clean out my desk and an exit interview. It's a very anti-climatic end to a 29 year career with the same company. Who would have thought I would have ended up a company man in corporate America? Not I, 29 years ago. It's like pulling my finger out of the ocean - my departure will not even cause a ripple. It's both humbling and liberating. I am excited about the change. Most people wonder what they will do in retirement. I don't have that problem. I will be entering a new life, a new culture and new career teaching English in Morocco. I don't feel like my life is winding down but revving up. How fortunate I am to have met Doris and to experience the wonderful life that we have together - it is a great adventure. Oh well, off to work one last time.
