champagne toasts around the campfire to celebrate sunshinecruiserTN's retirement on Friday! Come one, come all,....

OOOOOOOO I love retirement parties, all the food and the yummy cake!

[sunshinecruiserTN]

I vote for all week. Of course Monday will be the official party at work but heck who's counting. Monday will be a no work day anyway. Happy, yes I am! Finally.

[bluepinecones]

There is no better reason in the world to celebrate! GOOD FOR YOU!!!

[Cedar518]

hmmm...guess i wasn't clear on which day, was I? so,... of course majority rules... we will celebreate EVERY day until it's she's officially retired! So pull your reclining camp chair to the fire and let the party BEGIN! (gotta use my reclining camp chair because after champagne I snooze! haha! )

[rvgrammy1953]

Did a beer count and added another case Got to be sure we have enough for the week long party.....

So........113 bottles of beer on the wall............113 bottles of beer.....

Mitch!!! Too funny!! Spew alert .... pleeeeeeeze!

[Nasoosie]

DEFINITELY needed a spew alert, Mitch!!!

Coffee all over front of my jammies, and had to use Oxyclean on it!

[sunshinecruiserTN]

Okay, I spewed on that one too, MItch! How about an alert? Let's see do I want Mimosas today or a bloody mary?? Such a dilemna for so early in the a.m. I'm burning a day today, not gonna go to work so I can chug-a-lug all day if I want. It's pretty cool because I have everything done and I'm thinking I'll go see Julia & Julie supposed to be a good movie.

[rvgrammy1953]

well, isn't it 5 o'clock (or noon) somewhere, Mitch???!!! yep, need a warning cause the White Burch Beer just went flying at the screen....

[mitch5252]

Let's see do I want Mimosas today or a bloody mary??

I have a proposal for the OCT TN GTG - what say we have, in celebration of Carolyn's Retirement, either 1) a Mimosa Morning, or 2) a Bloody Mary Morning?? Or BOTH? Or, I could try to duplicate a recently discovered and highly refreshing drink, which we could name in honor of the newly retired SunshinecruiserTN - a Carolyn Cooler! (a combination of champagne, OJ, and pineapple juice, over plenty of crystal clear ice in a tall glass...yummo!)

Any takers, or do I have to drink alone?

Excitement all around..... Tell, tell what are the after retirement plans....big or little..... We so like to live through others adventures when ever possible......

I have just about convinced myself that it doesn't matter which way my step mother plans to move when she comes out of the skilled nursing arrangement. I plan on traveling AS IF she had chosen the Assisted Care choice.... She keeps talking about my not changing plans, I might just surprise her and not change them...... If she feels that independent then let her be that independent Can hardly wait for the GTGs and finding my way across those road maps to new places.... I retired four years ago and have been itching to go for the past four years and something would always change my plans..... sigh. I have to go while the co-pilot can still see to navigate the trails I put some more wood on the firs and unloaded a bunch ... figured we might go thru a little this week with the partying.....
