Good luck Murieen, how exciting!

Pax,.so glad to read you are happily ensconced on the beach

Crankin, I doubt that I will ever be able to afford to retire. That is just the way it is. That being said, I've not had good experiences with volunteer work myself so I totally get what you are saying. I would like to do some volunteer work if I can find a good fit with my skills and interests, but that remains to be seen. I will likely just have a change of career at some point and cut my working hours.
