got done WEED wacking a little while ago and realized I hadn't gotten todays mail. In it was a big white envelope from the Michigan Employees Retirement System. All the final papers inside for direct deposit, taxes and which plan I want in regards to beneficiary payments upon my death.
Kind of took the little bit of excitement out of the whole ordeal. Hell, I'm only 52 and have to figure out about stuff when I die.
Just been sitting here looking outside and couldnt help but wonder how much longer do we really have. I know theres no sense worrying about it but...
We really take a good amount of jabs at eachother but I'm really looking forward to this summer with Mike, Bubba and Bruce. Gonna make the best of it and have some fun.
Not gonna go looking for any other job right away, I've got some feelers out there but I plan on getting some stuff done around the house, taking it easy and have a good time on our RSS BBQ Tour-Summer of '10. (we need T-shirts with that!)
Its just a really odd feeling filling out papers about stuff for when you are dead.

Have a good one
Scott

Haha. Must be nice and I had the same thoughts when I purchased life insurance when I was 19 years old, married and with a kid, 34 years ago. Now at 53, don't let it bug you.

I hope at 52 I will be able to retire (wishful thinking mod).

You deserve a relaxing summer and the next drink is on me.

It did look purdy though didn't it.?
You will see me on the Sr. PGA Tour, in the background running the draft beer machine.
Just had the local newspaper reporter leave my office, they are doing a story on my retirement, got some good info to her about the GLBBQA and how I am going to spend some retirement time honing my BBQ skills. (save the comments)

Actually Rich I wasn't sleeping, I was in deep thought thinking and calculating about BBQ techniques.
Guess I need to think and calculate more. (Figure I'd throw that in there because Bruce would anyways!)
