Another Day in The Life

We both went to work this morning and can't say much about that for fear I will vomit. I get so nauseous when the alarm goes off and I have to get up and hurry to get ready to go somewhere I don't want to go. Sherri is sharing some of the same feelings and I know she is ready to hang it up. We read the journals of all our friends and every time we read them we get so jealous of them getting to go new places and see new things...and here we set only looking forward to the time we can go home!

Sherri and I entered into that discussion on the way home today from Wal Mart. When should we retire?? I think I would like to wait until August and then again we start thinking about places to go and when we can go there...Oh what to do. We need to make up our mind because my boss needs to know when I will be gone. Believe it or not he has to get my replacement.
Sherri and I are thinking about heading down to Galveston to help my sister and BIL get their house back in order after the hurricane. They have lost the entire downstairs to 7 ft of sea water coming through. After looking at some of the pictures on the Internet I can see how bad this one was. We will wait and see what they think about it and then make a plan if we can be of assistance.

I guess we will have to give this some more thought...Right now it is one of two...February 09 or August 09. What do you think...which would you think would be the right time??? Think it over and give me your feedback... We need to know the Pros and Cons so let us have it with both barrels...We will be waiting...Somewhere in Time.

If you don't have to, don't wait til August. You are ready now... Do you have any idea how those extra months would drag. Just my opinion.

You have waited long enough. Get out now or as soon as you can. You won't regret it and maybe we will see you down the road....jesse

I wouldn't wait! If you are really feeling sick it will effect you even more over time. Get out as soon as you can, please. The longer you wait the worse the job will get, been there done that.

Retire yesterday. The earlier you retire the more years you'll add on to the end of your life. I would rather eat beans than work one more day.

Life is short -- buckle up and hang on.

I didn't see October 08 on there...don't wait. Let me say that again. Don't wait. We never know what will happen. Don't wait. You don't want your tombstone to read, "here lies Speedy, he waited too long and never retired." Just do it! Seriously. Don't wait.

I don't understand what six more months of work is going to get you. Get out now! You can do a lot more than you think you can on a limited budget. Believe me, we know that.
