Interesting comments from everyone.
I have another 10 years before I can retire, on Tuesday nights at our quilting get togethers the gals that are retired tell those of us that are still working how great it is.
I worry that with how much I work that I will miss it.

Gee and I thought that I was alone with this problem!!!!!! I had plans to set aside a day or two each week to just sit and sew and sew and sew. Now that would be lovely but no so.

I'm giving myself retirement as of 12/23/14 so I can spend more time on quilting, Hip, Hip, Hooray. But from what I have heard from retired people one is busier when one is retired than when one was working. Guess I'll have to find out for myself.

Just yesterday I received an order to make a Harley Davidson T-Shirt quilt from a Harley event I was in during this past summer so I'm already on my way to being busy during retirement.

Everyone have a Merry Christmas & a Healthy Happy New Year of quilting.

I wish I COULD retire (I'm 67), but where I work, there is only one other nurse besides myself, and I'd hate to leave them without the help...As a matter of fact, I will be taking some time off for health reasons, and even feel guilty about THAT...
