If I'm not mistaken, Isn't today The first day of retirement? Have fun...I insist.

What you listen to is your business....what you hear is ours.
Thanks, Bill - I'm still at the office today, but tomorrow is another story. When I leave here this afternoon, it is with all my personal stuff and leaving the office key behind. I've been teary-eyed all day, and it's only gonna get worse as the day progresses.
Darn nice people!! Always making me cry (you too!!).

Happy Birthday/holiday/retirement/etc.etc.etc.
Congrats on it all!!!
Be a mentor, it's so much more fun throwing someone else into the vortex, than swirling it alone!
Nancy,
One of my mentors once said..."When you decide to retire you decide to give up the bad...but you also decide to give up the good...and the good is the contact with good people."
Enjoy Nancy...I got a feeling that "the people" will be knockin' down the door.

Nancy,
I quit my professional career after twenty-five years of service in telecommunications, three years shy of retirement, very painful at all levels. My decision to leave the company was based on integrity, personal values and a dedication to professionalism, issues that ATT has discarded. Be greatful for the friends that you have embraced at work, here at the Creek and in the other parts of your life, good friends are the result of the values that you hold true on a daily basis. Allow yourself to grieve what may feel like a loss at first, but then feel the joy of embracing the next stage of your journey in life. Now get back in the shop and lets see some dust, shavings and whatever engravers leave....
Congratulations,
Heather
Congrats Nancy and now begins another journey in life. You have friends and your hobbies. Embrace and enjoy them. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.
Nancy, when you put it in gear tomorrow after work, a whole new world opens before you. You thought you were busy at work. Wait until you find so much to do in retirement that you have to quit just to try to get organized! All those thousands of things you never had time to do.........guess what! Ha!Ha!Ha! And away we go!
CONGRATULATIONS, Nancy!
(I can only wish for the same kind of day...someday... ...but that darn Prize Patrol keeps passing my house by! )

Nancy, I expect to see many pictures of your wonderful work now that you have nothing to do but entertain us!!
Congratulations on starting a new adventure!
Best wishes, Nancy! You can maintain the friendships and let go of the stress; retirement is a great place to be although transition, change - of course it feels differently. Overall, enjoy and celebrate! Congratulations, Jude
Congratulations Nancy! You are getting something my wife says I'll never get or do. Retire.
Enjoy it all and open a new pages to your life.
