Tomorrow will be the last day at work for all those who took early retirement. Several of our close friends will be walking out of our lives. Everybody says "oh, well come back to see you .... or we'll stay in touch," but the truth is that rarely happens. I expect that most of them will close the door on this life and open one on their new lives. I'm happy for them, but I'm sad for the loss of their companionship.
I wrapped up a project today that has taken up most of my time at work for the last few weeks. With the holidays coming and the end of the year in sight, things have slowed down significantly as most work will be shifted to the new year.
I'll be working on my goals and commitments for the coming year. That will be a challenge because there is still a lot of stuff up in the air. I have faith that things will work our as they should.
Having issues with the new laptop. Y'all pray for me.
When I retired I was asked if I wanted to come back as a contract employee. I told them to leave me be for a year. By then they would have figured everything out and wouldn't need me or they'd have everything so screwed up even I couldn't help them. They never called and I never wanted to know which way it went. They're still in business and I'm still retired. Yay!
