My dad told me, never retire. You never get another day off.

I hear you. I started my discing, and mowing business when I worked the swing swift. Since I retired seams like there is never enough time in the day now. Don't know how I got my work done while stil working at my night job. Stan

I retired 3 years ago after 38 years of pushing a rig down the road and truck gardening on the side. I have enough work to keep me busy fore ever. I have 8 old farm tractors to go through yet plus the every day things that have to be dune around the place. This last winter I put electric heat in our house. Some of the things about being retiried is you can go to bed and get up when you want to and if you pooped out you can take a break or quit for the day. If I decide to take off for a day or a week or two I don't have to answer to anybody.

Couldnt agree more with the lack of time. I worked in the shipyards then went to teaching now finsihed with both. I seem to have less spare time now than ever before, I think you end up doing things you just didnt bother with before. Havent even got to working on the tractors yet, I fifnished work last July.

Yes, since I retired, I always TRY to get to the shop by the crack of noon. joe

I work a lot harder now that I'm "retired". The problem is by 4:30PM or so I'm worn out.

That's exactly what my father-in-law said. The worst thing about retirement is you never get a day off, and I have found out he was right.

Yes its tough! I'm heading out to the shop when I get done on here, usually before 10!

Retired 9 years ago, and was going to fix up an old tractor or pickup up one a year. Got started, but that is it. Had 50 Alpacas to take care of, now have 300, and spending 3 hours a day irrigating. WILL BE MAKING SOME CHANGES THIS SUMMER.

I get to the shop about 10 and usually head for the house by 3.
Really I don't know how I had time to do what needed to be done
around here working full time. I can consume a full day on just
normal maintenance items. But that's ok. I'll take retirement.
