You'll miss getting up and going to work, but it'll past if you do what you've always wanted to do. We have met the enemy and the enemy is us!

Congrats on the retirement however you're now going to find that after retiring you're gonna work harder than you did when drawing a paycheck, at least have less time to kick back and relax.
