It's okay, John. I am sure Rich will understand.
Stupid or brilliant?

I was able to. But I will bill you for the quantity of brain bleach I had to purchase.

Getting excited now. Had a farewell lunch yesterday. It was very uncomfortable.
Oh Well, just two days left (Counting today)!
Wooohooooo!

No longer a newbie, but still clueless.
You're all but done now! One significant task remains: deciding what bottle you're going to pop in celebration tomorrow.

Already ahead of you my friend! It will be either a Stag's Leap or a Chateau Montelena Cabernet.
Saturday, I am going to a gathering for "Pre-Briggs". Briggs is a 4 day blues festival that we camp at and we meet every year before the event to make plans. I will bring the Stags Leap to that.
Sunday, my brother (father of 7) is having a Father's day lobster fest. I will bring the Montelena to that (along with a bottle of Riesling (a 2 time gold medalist).
Unfortunately, on Friday, I am alone making potato salad for both events. My tater salad is the best I have ever tasted and it seems people agree with me. All summer long folks put in their requests for it.
Being alone, I think that I will just rip the cork out of my 2015 barrel reserve and sit out on the deck and enjoy the low stress quiet (after chores are done of course). Rather yummy.

FWIW, don't buy that one, it's already empty.............Well, it was until you reminded me. Now I will have to get another tanker full.

I got home, cracked a bottle of brunello, grilled a perfect burger, then spent the evening out on my deck.
At one point, I did what I always do. I began planning my weekend time so that I could get all I needed done before Monday.
Then it hit me. There are no more Mondays!
It was then that I just wanted to dance.
A fellow could get used to this!

Awesome, John. Congrats. Make something nice for dinner on Monday!
I remember my first morning of early retirement - I just couldn't stop smiling
