Me (to my wife): Hey, guess what? I just realized that this is my first Father’s Day as a retired person!
My wife (who, disappointedly, responded in a very unenthusiastic tone): Yep, it’s going to be a year of firsts.
Having had my epiphany bubble burst, and after internally sulking for a bit, I had to admit, she was right.
Since retiring, I’ve already experienced my first Memorial Day, as well as birthdays for my wife and daughter as a retired person.
Many more “firsts since retiring” will occur this year.
I’ll just try and avoid making any more less than astute observations going forward! 😊
