I forgot to buy bacon yesterday. It's funny how the smallest crap gives me the urge to smoke. I never noticed that before.

 

I am "retiring" at the end of the year, followed by three months on the dole then back to work. Gonna use that time to get house#1 cleaned up, painted and on the market.

 

Congratulations Russ!

 

Congrats Russ.

 

Thanks Lou and Jose, it's not really "retirement" more like a job change. Change for the better for me. I'll have an apartment in Mexico City where I will be based for my two weeks on, one week off schedule.

 

It's only a 2.5 hour flight from DFW to Mexico City. Sometimes if I have to go to Merida, I'll swing through Houston.

 

Yea but life work balance will be on your own terms.

 

I think that your idea of "retiring " is different than most people's.

 

As Lou said, working for myself will be like retiring!

Daniel, what part of Houston do you live in? I have a lot of friends down there having spent most of my youth growing up down there. I even have a buddy who is an electrician down there. He's living in a FEMA trailer in his driveway where his house used to be.

 

Off to school. Later all.
