Sounds like you got it together.
I have been retired for 8 months now and love it.
My only regret is I didn't retire earlier. I could have retired at age 51 with retirement from my job, but thought I could not afford to so I waited till I was 62.
While extra income by waiting is nice I missed 11 years of retirement. Usually we learn to adapt to the income we have and I would have done that also. If I had known how great retirement is I would have done it 11 years ago. I would say make sure everything is paid for and have some saving in case of emergency. Every day is the weekend, enjoy!
