I left at 55 so I hopefully have 180 months..As you know the months fly by...you look in the mirror one day and see and old man's face and say to yourself...............Time flies.........I can't but it..........can't get it back....but wish I had more of it..........I wasted the time I have on this earth to trudge along delivering pkgs or driving feeders for what??????? I am so blessed to have made it to this point in life and many others older than me with more $$$ than me are miserable at their jobs wishing they could start enjoying their golden years but unfortunatly many wait to long and enjoy very little of it..How many time have you heard of someone retiring then maybe a yr or so later has died?? I have......Nice to read some Obits and hear that someone retired 25 or 30 yrs ago..they had the right Idea:choir: [/QUOTE]
