Starting the goodbyes

We're in the single digits now!

Doing a lot of 'this is the last time we will...' things.

Wednesday

I had a plant-wide meeting

to announce my departure.

My management staff knew,

but we kept it under wraps

from all the employees for awhile.

It went really well..

and I only cried a little :-)

Their only questions were..

'you're going to live in an RV!!??'

Friday

My car finally sold!

I didn't get what I wanted for it,

but I made a few bucks,

and paid it off.

We didn't want to have an

extra vehicle to pay for on the road.

We know a lot of RVrs who do

have that extra vehicle,

and it could come in handy,

but we'll be on a pretty tight budget.

Friday night

I had my last hair appointment.

Got it all done...cut/color/hilights..

I got it cut short :-)

After that..

I met for the last time (for awhile!)

my good friend, Karen..

We had a nice dinner, and I stopped

by her house to say 'bye' to her

husband Bob. 

They've been such good friends

for many years, helping me

when I lived alone,

watching my cat Milo

when I would go on vacation,

and helping us pack up and move when I left

my house in Hazleton.

Please keep them in your prayers..

Bob has cancer and is not doing well :-(

Tonight we are getting together

with George's son, daughter, 

spouses, and grandkids,

for pizza.

Another 'goodbye'...
