Retirement

 
And so begins another transition. The paperwork is in and the word is out. By the time our Christmas cards are in the mail this year, Don and I will both be footloose pensioners driving each other and our kids crazy. It’s both exciting and scary.
 
Although the idea of a slower pace with fewer demands sounds great, we have never been alone together 24-7 for more than a week. There were always parents, kids, or jobs to chop up our time and steer our schedules. I can’t imagine how this transition will play out, but it is my grandest hope that we will survive it and come out the other side still friends. I’ll keep you posted.
