I have retired. Tuesday night was my last shift. I have been working nights for a long time. It may take a little while for me to readjust and become a day person.

I've been a day person just recently. There's a lot of them out there when the sun is out. Its kinda weird. A bit too crowded.

Thanks Everybody,
....This is actually a second retirement for me. I retired from the army in 1993. My goal is to eat better and get outdoors for exercise more and try to stay healthy for as long as possible. The snake collection will stay the same size for the next several years. I am still staying awake all night. I had become a day person during my long summer vacation and extended time helping with my dad. Going back to work the last month turned me back into a grouchy night person. I am sure I will make the adjustment over the next few weeks.
Life is good!
Jeff
