Well I got up this morning with the same sick feeling I had the morning before and the morning before that...It seems that I have an inherent disgust for work and therefore I have this morning sickness that I cannot shake! The thought of dealing with the same dribble that I have been tied to for 35 years is about to drive me over the hill and into the river...in my boat if I am lucky.
Now with the "Bailout" oh Geeee what next. You know you wait 45 years to retire and plan out what little you have left of your life and they tell you that the country is about to go in the Toilet! What next??? they may Nuke us next year....there goes my trip to Colorado! Then Social Security runs out....there goes my trip to the West coast....we re-elect the same Congress back in to Washington and there goes the rest of my life savings. The only trip that I will see is the one to the poor house!
OK on a brighter note Sherri comes home tomorrow. She will make me feel better. I have eaten all the wrong food since she has been gone and I need to have her here to tell me all the things that I am doing wrong. I feel so much better when I am up dated on my faults. I need to have her here so she can tell me where to park in the Kroger's parking lot. The other day I drove around for some time trying to find that right spot....I was blank I need my navigator to help me.
NO Speedy is not cracking up...yet...he is just tired and needs some rest and relaxation. R&R as it was referred to in the service. Maybe my early out will come first and I will have the best of both worlds. This reminds me of the Service in a way...any of you men and women that were overseas during Vietnam remember when you were "Short" and you knew in just a few months you would be going back to the "World" and you worried that you would never make it to that plane....Well that is the same feeling I have now. All the problems this country is going through and I feel like I need to get out of here before that rocket round lands on my head!
I am depressing myself! Well I better move on to washing the dishes and doing another load of laundry before I go to bed...I need to chat some tonight and maybe my friends will cheer me up. I need a shot of humor before that alarm goes off again in the morning ...UGH! Well until next time I will wisp myself away Somewhere in Time.

Tie a knot in the end of the rope and hang on! There is light at the end of the tunnel.

Hey Speedy, they said it will get better, don't you believe them?

Speedy, be sure to get the bottle of Seagram Seven and where the ribbon your last thirty days. If you don't want to drink it by yourself, save it and I'll help with it Somewhere in Time.

Speedy, if I were you I'd just go ahead and retire in Feb rather than wait until May. I felt the same way you do during my last weeks of work - wanting to be anywhere but at work, and I've never regretted a day that I took an "early out".

Hang in there, Joe! It could be worse...you could be holding one of those bad mortgage notes, and they surely wouldn't help you collect!! :))
Stay the course and get out as soon as you can, so we can see you on the road...Somewhere in Time real soon!
