You have earned your retirement. But just so you know, because you no longer have an iron-clad alibi for not volunteering for anything and everything people can think of, you will now be busier than ever before. Life is short. Eat dessert first.<br />Blessings as we celebrate Emanuel--God with us.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06121172465022137270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-84274758778745390332014-12-01T23:45:12.187-05:002014-12-01T23:45:12.187-05:00Good idea, but it will be a big change in both of ...Good idea, but it will be a big change in both of your lives, sometimes more than expected !

You will love having the time to do the things you want to do and to not have to rush anymore. <br /><br />I had a friend who was retired and he'd say: The only downside of retirement? No days off. ;)<br /><br />I am envious of your new life!<br /><br />Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07042143254001890567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556878706697309931.post-64863518574820497512014-11-23T14:33:18.283-05:002014-11-23T14:33:18.283-05:00Congratulations Gerard!

I would love for us to be down to one car and more importantly, have him relax a bit now, as Gerard can do. The rat race is for rats! Really, so happy for Gerard.
