Wow – that was one quick week… almost like I’m working again…. but I’m NOT 🙂
Had a night out with oldest Sister and Brother-in-Law last night, with them saying “Bon Voyage” before we fly out. Many more of those coming up this last 2 weeks. I hate to leave these people behind – but I have to go. Most of my life has been about other people and their needs. Now it’s MY time, along with my Queen, to live what I consider a life we both have earned.
I have never been one who put a lot of merit into entitlement – I think entitlement has been abused entirely too much this past decade, but I dang sure think we earned this – and I say that proudly.
So, if we can keep the hurricanes away – we fly out 2 weeks from today – woohoo~!!!

Born in Germany as an Army brat - I moved permanently to the United States about the time I was ready to start school -
Dad put to me to work when I turned 13 tearing off roofs and packing shingles.. I did that, DE tasseled corn and bucked hay all the way through high school. After graduation, moved down South for a year or so trying to figure what I wanted to do. Finally came home and joined the Air Force serving almost 5 years - which included a 3 year tour in Germany, where I met my Queen.
Came home and started working as a roofer. Economy went to crap and I knew I would not be able to support my growing family the way I wanted to, so I pestered the HR department at General Electric until they hired me.
A very quick almost 34 years, 4 Daughters and 9 Grandkids later - here I am .... waiting as patiently as I can, to start the next chapter of our life - romping around in the Caribbean Sea checking out the various islands that we have not been to yet.
Holy $hit what a ride~!!!! ;-)
