Daze of Retirement

The days speed by
   In a daze
The nights crawl along
   In a haze

The rest of the world plays
   You're a bit crazed
Life swiftly passes you by
   You're amazed

And now that I'm done with the principal, I'm living off of the interest. (So to speak - LOL). Thanks for the feedback, Panagiota! :) gw

Welcome to the retirement club ( you don't look old enough ) After a while you'll find there isn't enough time in the day and you'll wonder how you found time to go to work. Tom. You'll be selling your alarm clock lol.

Thanks, Tom. It's nice to be welcomed to the club! I actually have some real plans, but I couldn't execute them last week. This week, for sure. Then perhaps the daze and the haze won't seem so crazed! ~ gw

I'm glad that you're able to enjoy it. So far (all of one week) for me, I see that it's going to take quite some getting used to. (Of course, I have almost zero family, so that makes it lonelier). Ta, ta! ~ Gershon
