I have to be honest, I am still embracing the changes since getting out in June. I have a job that pays the bills and I am hoping to start school soon so I can look forward to going to work everyday!

SPC(P) Jay Heenan, Sounds like you have a lot to look forward to. Remember, it's just a job, temporary solution for a long-term fix. Hang tough, it will get easier. Congrats on continuing your education. Make sure you follow your passion and not the $ when considering course of study.

I had 2 really great things that happened when I retired. I got married to my wife, and I moved to Thailand. I also had 2 very stressful things happen when I retired. I got married to my wife, and I moved to Thailand. ;)
Seriously, change is good. It can be stressful, but when it is done, you can emerge as a better person.

Vit Spirek - One of my favorite things to ask people is "when was the last time you caught yourself smiling?" Then I ask what caused them to smile.
