Retirement???? Really?

On April 30, 2011 - I will have been free retired for 2 full years.   Where has the time gone?   Oh, wait.... we starting building our house (yes we did), I began making and giving away selling my jewelry.   I have played with my grandchildren, Aiden who is about to be 5 and Taylor who is about to be 3.   I sorted through some of my storage boxes and took some loads to the Lighthouse Children's Home and just plain burned a bunch of old stuff I didn't want anymore.  I have had a garden in the summers and have planted blueberries, a peach tree, a grapefruit and tangerine, a plum tree and countless other items on our 10 acres, all of which I maintain on a daily basis.  I planned a wedding for my son Cody and his beautiful bride Melanie.   My 3rd grandchild Jake was born and now my wonderful/gorgeous daughter Danielle and her husband Mark are about to be parents for the third time in approximately another month.   Its a girl!   I will have 2 boys and 2 girls.... I am SO blessed.

So for those of you who think being retired is easy.... THINK AGAIN!
