I must be too easy to please or something but I work so I can enjoy life outside of work and even being stuck at home while pretty much everything was closed was enjoyable to me...

I don't need a plan because I know what I love to do and I find that people who focused on work all their life have a hard time with retirement because they never took the time to truly start enjoying their time outside work (I've got tons of examples of that from seeing colleagues retiring and I could tell which ones were going to be bored and would go and find another job because that's all they've ever had as a "hobby").

If I could retire tomorrow I would build a four season house to replace our three season cottage, I would go hiking every day (to the joy of my dog), play video games, watch movies, read books, cook, go camping... All the things I already know that I enjoy and that work gets in the way of.
