Retired and ready for the next phase of my life to begin...

I am now retired from Hill's.  It hasn't really sunk in yet.  I had a dream last night that I forgot some of my stuff at work and had to go clean it out.  I am pretty sure I got everything though.  I have been bring stuff home for a month or so.  It is bitter sweet.  I will miss all my friends that I have made over the last 20+ years.

Larry and I are going to be working around the house together.  We have walls,  trim and doors to paint, get stuff ready for a garage sale and take a much deserved vacation.

We are going to spend more time with our grandkids and family and I am going to continue taking lots of pictures and scrapbooking and making cards.

My weight loss journey is still moving along.  Now that I am retired, I plan to walk first thing each morning.  My next visit with Dr Hu is this coming Friday, so I will see if I lost any more since my last visit.  I am wearing smaller sizes.  I have lots of bigger sizes I have been moving out of my closet and into the "For Sale" pile.

Been a while since I have posted here

It's been a busy winter.  I am soooo looking forwasrd to spring!  We have had some awesome weather the last few days here but winter is still with us and cooler weather is upon us again.

My weight loss journey is going well.  I have lost almost 40 lbs now.  I do feel so much better.  I still have 30+ to go.  Still need to get more walking in.

Spent the day today with my daughter and grandson.  He had his 1 yr pictures taken today.  More to come on that later :)

In case you didn't already know, I am retiring from Hill's the end of March.  I have been at Hill's for almost 20 years. They offered a whole bunch of us early retirement.  I am planning to spend time helping Larry with remodeling our house, working on organizing stuff around the house, scrapbooking, making cards, doing more with my photography and travelling.  I am sure there will be lots more that I will be doing.

My granddaughters just celebrated their 4th birthday.  We had a wonderful celebration at Anthony & Evie's.  They loved being the center of attention.  They are such beautiful little princesses.

Braxton, my youngest grandson, just turned 1.  We celebrated his birthday with family here at our house.

Still working on getting pictures edited before I post them.

Well , have a great week!  More to come!
