3 Years and counting

Today is a watershed for me.

June 1st.

In exactly 3 years time, I can collect my lump-sum pension from the job I held for nearly 30 years.

It is a long time. A lot can happen in 3 years. All I have to do to realize that is look at the last 3 years.

But I am now counting down.

I will mark every day, week and month until that day arrives.

Because on that day I will have my freedom. And I will be able to build a modest home for myself at the lake.

Where I will live out the rest of my life. In peace, in the midst of nature's beauty, in the last place on Earth that I can still call home.
