Congrats on the retirement, did it myself 5 years ago after 38 years with the same employer. No regrets at all. Don't miss the work but do miss a lot of the people I worked with.

You need to read Jason Fung’s book The Obesity Code, I too was pre diabetic, but read his book and started implementing his program and my A1C returned to normal within a couple of weeks. Worth reading, and you niw have ghe time!
Congrats brother! Enjoy it
I second this! My doctor made me read this and it fixed me up right away, good tangible strategies

It’s a great book with a bad title, you don’t need to be obese to benefit from the book. The concepts are so simple and easy to implement……..

The older I get the more I realize that St Pattys Day is the best holiday of the year. 
25 years in banking and I’m going to start to use this verbiage when necessary as my usual “well you are seriously fcuked” has been found to be contrary to our company Code of Conduct, as has been my next go to, which is advising to buy lotto tickets….

Leaf fans sue the team they love, you can’t make this shit up if you tried. Someone has to pay for Marner’s next contract, why not those who religiously support the team……..

The Leafs are out of control to be fair. I don't think they will win outside the realm of PR.

MLSE response.
Silence peasants!
You will pay for our overpays, buyouts, exorbitantly lavish perks and be happy! The most expensive front office is here to entertain you, have you not been entertained? Now off with you and be grateful the prices are not higher! Tempt us more, we dare you.

The only thing more outrageous than the near 20-percent increase in some areas for next season is MLSE stating that some tickets are 'historically underpriced' related to market demand.
Despite the outrage from Leafs fans, hell will freeze over before MLSE looks at a price freeze or decreasing prices given that the waitlist for season tickets is more than 12,000 patrons long, which is unfortunate for the average fan. The corporate greed continues to turn Scotiabank Arena into a glorified movie theatre and it appears it will only get worse.

Its the kind of thing that makes you think to yourself. This is exactly why even though it looks like we should be winners, we just remain losers.
The excessively greedy organisation develops greedy players that are more focused on their greed than winning at the sport they say they love.
Father MLSE is just like their sons

It's gotten crazy out there. McSorley's has "Happy Hour" from 2-5pm for $6 pints and always a BOTD for $7 from Monday - Friday.
That's when I'm there.
