What a difference time makes

The final one of my bosses that has been around for 10 years has retired.  It's kind of sad to see people go.  But then again, a new regime takes over.  I only have a little over 3 years left before I retire again.  First I retire from the military which seems like a lifetime ago (which it truly is) and now from a school district.  I can hardly wait.  I just want to be with my family, do my crafting, read some books, walk, just do different things that I never seem to have time for because I work five days a week.

No regrets.  I love my job.  There are some people that annoy me, but other than that, I love my job.  I love what I do.  Will I be sad when it's time to retire?  Not really.  As anyone else my age knows, we've worked hard.  We deserve to just enjoy the later years before we go to be with those of our family who have gone before us.

It's about us.

Sometimes life hands you things that you just don't think you can handle.  Sometimes life just goes merrily on its way and you roll with the punches.  Throughout life I realize that God is always watching over us and protecting us.  I am glad to believe that.  I am glad that there is someone up there who knows me and loves me despite my foibles.

I'm still working on cards and tags for swaps.  I just am so lazy to take pictures and put them up.  I even forget I have a blog from time to time.  But I know I can do better.  Life has just been strange lately.  And so it goes.
