This year is moving fast, but I suspect the next 4 months will take forever.  When I look at the countdown calendar it reads 74 days, but those are working days, not calendar days.

I am getting ready to file my paperwork with the State for my retirement. It is funny that you have a last day at work, but the official retirement date for the State is not until the first day of the next month.

Oh! It is confusing to say the least. Seven pages of paperwork and some are so confusing you should have an accountant with you to help fill them out.

Anyway, I will be ready for summer, not just because I am retiring, but to get rid of this frozen weather. I hate winter.

Welcome to the New Year!

Before Christmas I turned in my letter of retirement to the Superintendent and principal.

It will go in affect on June 3, the day after our last day. Having a desire to live a little longer is one of the reasons why I am retiring at this time. It will be a new chapter in our lives and we are looking forward to it.

Of course that will give me more time to write, so maybe I will get some of these novels I have started finished and published.

Here is a little more of a new one I am working on, way too slowly.
Feel free to leave a comment below.

A half hour later, Mike turned off onto a gravel road. They drove for about five miles and then pulled off to the side.

    "Time to get out and stretch," Hawks said as he climbed out of the car.

    "Why are we stopping here?" Jenny asked. "We just got going again."

    "Well, we have some business to conduct," Hawks said. "I want to know who you're working for?"

    "I don't know what you mean," she said, her eyes opening wide.

    "Yes, you do," Hawks said, taking a step closer to her. "Mike heard you tell someone that you planted a homing device on our car. Now either talk or we leave you here."

    "He must be mistaken," she said bitterly. "I'm not working for anyone."

    "Take off your shoes, socks, and coat," Hawks said as he pulled his gun.

    "You're crazy!" she said and backed up.

    "Do it or we will," Hawks said.

    As she pulled off the items, Hawks said, "Jim, search her bag."

    "There's nothing in the bag except clothes," Jim said.

    "Put these in there," Hawks said as he tossed him her shoes, socks, and coat.

"You're on your own now lady. By the way, your device is on another vehicle," Hawks said as he climbed back into the car.

    "You can't leave me here like this," she said frantically. "I'll freeze."

    "It’s not that cold," Hawks said as Mike pulled away.
