Found a really nice quilt shop not too far from coeur d'alene

Have fun. One thing for sure the quilts will keep you warm!

Retirement is great, you will find that you are busier than ever.

Don't be surprise, but you may not have as much time for quilting as you think. I thought the same thing, all the fun stuff I will have time to do. Well, I don't see where I found time to work, I am so busy doing everything including quilting that I am sooooo, busy. At times, I think going to work has more time to rest. Enjoy and do what you want, just do what you want to do and ENJOY ENJOY

Congratulations. You earned it. You deserve it. Time will fly so don't put off your favorite, fun things to do! Enjoy.

You've got that right!!! I love being able to sew without interruption. I have a pile of quilts for homeless families in my living room that is at least 22 quilts high, and I finish more all the time. It is so nice, after all those stressful and busy years of working, to be able to sew whenever I want to! I am also glad I got most of my supplies and fabric when I was working and had the money.

Congratulations on your retirement. I'm retiring in 3 mos. and 28 days (calendar days) so I know what you mean about the days being weird. I can't wait. Enjoy your leisure mornings.

Congratulations and ENJOY!!! Happy moving day. Remember that once you get settled, come back and let us know how it all went.

I retired at age 48. I was fully vested and had a pension so did I want to keep working just to pay higher taxes or stay home and do what I wanted? I gave my two week notice on Monday and never went back on Tuesday. I told DH I retired he said I just quit. LOL I am busier now then when I was working and so much happier. Won't be long I can apply for SS and that will go into my quilting budget!

Enjoy every moment of your new life.
