Me too, Jennifer. I'm definitely neither bored nor missing the daily grind of a job. Among other things, I've been using the time to get into a regular exercise routine, something I could never quite get the hang of while I was working. Now I'm doing 4 miles a day on my bike. 😍 Getting into another job again is a lot more work too. It really is a full-time job on its own. As is taking care of a home and pets. My dad's been retired a few years now and we've often had conversations wherein he's commented on how he doesn't understand how he got anything done at home while he was still working. Of course when he was working he did have my mom to take care of some of it, like all the laundry and house cleaning. 😉

I'd say if there is anything for everyone to be jealous of us about, it's that we now have time for all the work we couldn't get to before. 😉 Too bad we won't be done with all that by the time we're working again, right? 😉
