Pete retired after 30 years in the Army in January 2006. By November of that year he had himself a new job and was out the door every morning. It's a mixed blessing to me. I sure don't get much done when he is home, but I do enjoy having him around. He has a lot of hobbies and interests and I think when he finally retires for good we will have a great time together. But, then again, I may be living in a dream world!! :shock:
