Remembering Retirement

It's hard (for me) to believe... but I retired 7 years ago, at the end of January 2008. (I recall that my mother didn't want me to retire - she said it made her feel old!)

I recently came across the program for her retirement party - in June 1983.

(How different she looked then!)

As I read her plans - to garden, travel and spend time with family, I realize that her retirement goals weren't all that different from my own! And she did achieve them all...
