I know that feeling Caff
The first time I retired I was happy that the stress and pressure I was under was ending but had a sense of loss knowing that I would loose that close working relationship with my colleagues several of whom I had come to feel were friends.
That retirement didn't last 6 months but now, several years down the line, I have decided to try to work harder at being retired. Although the money is very welcome I found that I was begrudging the time I had to spend to earn it. I thought I would never want to retire but I have changed my mind, the sense of freedom I felt when I handed over this last set of canvases on Monday was fantastic.
So enjoy your retirement you have earned it.
