It is on the calendar at work. That will be the last day I work. When I get around to waking up the next morning, I will be retired.

I just cannot say enough great things about being retired. It's so good to finally be busy with the life you want to have.
Enjoy!

Then a lone female showed up about a week ago on her travels South. She has been here a week. She needs to get back on her trek South. As cold as it was last week, we are surprised she is still here.

continue the lifestyle you have known.

continue the lifestyle you have known. What is interesting to me is watching people going to work and knowing I don't have to do a damn thing.

My husband has a friend who was an FAA controller and he was counting down the days til his retirement a few weeks ago. He couldn't wait! And ever since, he's been doing what your little frog is doing!
