Friday is officially my last day of work! I am retiring! Honestly I can't wait! I am ready! Wish me luck, my boss is cranky & wants me to stay, she keeps calling me @ home & asking me 2 stay!

Lucky you!
I hope you have lots of time to do what you want to make the days enjoyable.
I've been a stay at home Mom and housewife and was just complaining to DH. He has 2 weeks leave and I said I would like to have leave too.(no rest for the wicked)

Enjoy retirement - but it is true what they say - in a few weeks you will wonder how you ever found time to go to work!

Congratulation !
If you are tempted to stay to work, just think of all the time you will have to surf the net and grab plenty of freebies while your machine will go full boost behind you for more embrodery !!

Lucky you !

Congratulations on your retirement. It took me about a month of being at loose ends when I retired. Now I wonder how I ever had time to work. Just think of all the time you have for computer time and embroidery time. You will have that machine buzzing all the time. Enjoy. Hugs, Mary

PS. Your favorite day of the week will be every day!!!!

Congratulations and well deserved. I retired only 5 weeks ago and am loving it. Been babysitting, looking after Mum, shopping when I want to, sewing, sewing, sewing, sewing, you get my drift I'm sure.

Enjoy every minute of every day as life is so precious. You'll now have time to enjoy the family more and relax and live.

Love and blessings Chris

Good luck in your retirement-but from what I have heard from so many people-when you retire,there still aren't enough hours in the day to do what you want to do. Ahhh, what the Hey-kick back, relax a bit and enjoy!! ~linda~

It's great having the time to do what I want to do when I want to do it! The best part is I don't have to do anything I don't want to do! LOL Enjoy!

YES! Remember that day well. One of the best days of our lives. Hubby and I were self employed. Go for it and never look back. Life is too, too short.

Congratulations! Think of all the things you can do in a day. But I found that there isn't enough hours in the day to play.

Enjoy your retirement! The only down side is it is harder to organize your time as there are now so many things you will be able to do. Every day is a weekend!

Enjoy the retirement - I thought of doing that this year too, but my job is not hard, and keeps me in embroidery money. LOL DH is retired, and he gets confused as to what day it is - even more so if I have a day off and don't go upstairs to my office. LOL

We would love to retire, but due to circumstances beyond our control - we can't right now. I was forced to stay at home 2 yrs ago and haven't been able to go back to work. I don't miss working, but I do miss all the people I saw. And I don't have enough time to geat everything done! The time just seems to fly by. My husband is now 70 and still working. But for him it's a good thing as that's what keeps him going as otherwise the only things he would do is watch tv, eat, sleep and a little bowling and he is prone to gaining on the belly!hehe. So you just say I'm outta here and enjoy your retirement!!!
