It seems I tend to stay with jobs. I work in IT as a system administrator; my first job (after college) lasted ten years, and my current one has lasted thirteen. However, I've decided to take some time away from full-time work. I'm switching to "on-call" status in a little over a week, which means that the company can call me in if there's some urgent need or some particular technical problem I can help with, but otherwise I'm basically done there.
For somebody as attached to job security and money as me, this is quite a move, but I expect that I'll be able to do all right with some short-term work and some income from my savings. That on-call status means the company can call me if there's some particular need during the transition, but I don't expect it to be an ongoing thing.
So it's time for me to get in some travel, some housecleaning, maybe some school or some training, some back-to-the-basics spiritual renewal, and some exercise (e.g., walking the mile to the parish for daily Mass: thank Heavens they have one at 11:30!)
I have to get one of those guide books to "offbeat" attractions. :-)
