What's the best thing about being retired?

46. My mother was the same.

She was a "housewife" while my sister and I were in school.

The minute my sister was out of the house, mom went back to work. I can't remember how old she was when she finally stopped working, but she was way over 70. She worked as an accountant for a German company with an office here in the south, and she loved her job.

I think my dad finally persuaded her to retire, but I don't think she was really too enthused about it lol.
