YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!
I filled out all the paperwork. Bobbie and I went to the Credit Union over lunch and got the signatures witnessed and notarized. I returned to work and copied everything, filled out an envelope, and mailed the package (priority with tracing) to Seal Beach.
A MAJOR MILESTONE!!!
While Bobbie (my wife) and I were at lunch, she asked, "What is the first thing you will do?" Recognizing a trap when I see one, I said that I would clean out the office first, then do income taxes. That seemed to satisfy her. Then she asked if we should buy a second computer. She is nervous about what I will be doing...probably afraid that I will intrude on her space.
Excitement is building!! 17 work days remaining.

Formal Notice to My Supervisor
I finally spent the afternoon filling out the retirement paperwork. I have been avoiding this just like income tax returns. Read lots of complicated instructions, then fill out lots of forms.
I completed the form that notifies my supervisor and the local HR that I will be retiring and taking vacation prior to retirement. I got my supervisor to sign it and mailed it to HR. This is an other milestone. Retirement is becoming real.
Some pending items will delay the actual application until tomorrow:
I have to get two signatures from my wife. One has to be witnessed and one must be notarized. I also have to include a copy of a blank check for the direct deposit, even though I know the ABA and account number very well. I must include a copy of my birth certificate to prove my age. I must also include a copy of my wife's birth certificate and our marriage license, even though she will not be getting rights of survivorship.
18 work days remaining.
