| Introduction | My husband and I retired from public sector careers in the Midwest in 2001. James was involuntarily "awarded" early retirement several months before I took my official early retirement on September 7, 2001. On September 11th we were reveling in one of our first actual retirement days together over coffee, the newspaper and morning news. Then our world along with the rest of the nation's was torn apart. 9/11 happened and we looked at each other and said, "Life is too short and too uncertain; we need to follow our dreams". For over a decade we had wanted to move to California; so we did. From Nebraska to California and now together we do a retirement blog, Retired and Ready where we share our experiences, ponderings and interests and link people to resources on various retirement issues ranging from the financial to the fanciful. |
