I retired early from teaching high-school after 30 years mainly because I have health issues, but also because of Covid, and in general the way education is trending in this state. This is the first time I have not had a job in 40 years…I feel so guilty about doing what I need to do for me. I miss some of my kids and my co-workers desperately…but I do like being able to sleep and pee when I want.

My wife, former classroom teacher of over 15 years, laughed and said "Ain't that the truth."

@BE It's hard to explain to people who haven't lived it, but your body teaches itself to pee only at certain times of the day. Trying to explain to a nurse at the urologist that you literally can't pee (not even a few drops) between 7:00-4:00 is a blast.
