Personal Commentary/Observation
Took the next step closer to retirement yesterday. It's Summer Enrollment time when you can change your benefits options for the upcoming academic year (Sep. 2023 - Aug 2024). For the first time since I can remember I made changes. In light of my upcoming retirement, I dropped several pointless items given I'm done at the end of December, like STD, LTD, Opt. Life ... none of which I'll need for the next 5 months. Yep - it looks like retirement is really happening.
