Know the feeling. I retired. and have never worked harder in my life than I do now 'helping' the boy out with his business.

Sounds like a great ending!

I usually end up working harder than at work or spending money.

Every retired guy I know says "I don't know how working guys get it all done. I'm busier now than ever, and it never ends."

It must be true: I hear it on the golf course, the shooting range, the fishing hole...

Retired twice already. Hated it. Too many curtins to hang, floors to mop, well you know.

Was forced to get a paying job again. Funny how the other half does the things she managed to do all her life without me but when I'm around, this hurt and that hurts and the word "I Want" became a frequent phrase.

Gonna work for a few more years and then give it up for good, I hope.

Only 45 years old here but we have only been in this house for three years and little miss boney butt thinks I'm retired.
