Retired, Just Because I was Ready

When I retired I did become depressed for a few months. I started spending more time with friends and spent more time on my hobbies and that helped me come out of it.
I decided to retire two years ago just because I was ready. I was very happy with my decision to leave my employer even though I spent many happy years there.
On my last day my boss and coworkers threw me a retirement party and I left after the party and saying my last goodbye to everyone.
