    My dear friend Susan made me this countdown calendar. Her grandson came up with the idea based on the fact that I am a teacher. Now I just need to remember to remove a link every morning :lol:

    Congratulations! I retired a year ago last June after 35 years of teaching Junior High. You will love it!

    Yesterday, I had my BIG Retirement party after 22 years of teaching. I was a Computer Media Specialist in an elementary school. I never thought I would be able to retire, but my body told me loud and clear that it was time to do it. Maybe all my aches and pains were just the desire to quilt more.
    My last day of work is Oct. 7. I should have had a countdown chain. Great idea.
