hard to believe yesterday marked five years since my last day of work before retirement…

I remember what a special day it was… I did all the things I wanted to do, the way I wanted;-)…

it was always fun to gather the group for a photo, kind of like herding cats, lol…

since then I’ve travelled a bit, enjoyed being a hermit through Covid and beyond, spent hours in the garden, read a ton of books, and enjoyed every minute… I truly am blessed;-)…

it’s a wonderful life…

as the holiday season approaches, I’ve been thinking about friends who are going through difficult times…

seems the air is filled with illness… many are dealing with infections and some, even more serious stuff…

feeling like I should be doing more to support them, but not sure how to do that other than sending thoughts and prayers their way…

it also feels like it is becoming less safe away from the house, and I am moving back into hermit-ville…

retirement…

lately I’ve been hearing a lot of people discussing their retirement plans…

I’m of an age where many people in my circle are considering retiring… some are cutting back their work schedules and others are pulling the plug…

in the women’s groups I meet with, there are only three of us who still work… the others are busy with life and fitting in time for travel…

some days it makes me think about not working but I then I remind myself how much I enjoy my colleagues and the work I do… I like being around people and staying home might mean turning into a hermit… 

I do enjoy my extra day off every few weeks and am looking toward having that opportunity every week…

so many changes to consider…

caught this lovely play of sun and shadows today…
