Subject: I'M OFFICIALLY RETIRED
Written By: Don Carlos on 05/18/05 at 1:18 pm
Yesterday I turned in all of my final grades for this, my last semester of full time teaching. No more vexing freshmen to torment me. No more boring commitee meeting. YIPEEEEE.
Now to learn herbal medicine, do the chores I have been putting off, and read the Horatio Hornblower novels.

I don't know if he will EVER finish that. Things just keep appearing on it-like magic. ;)

YES
And more time with Cat (as Paul said) is the main one. " Lounging" in bed in the morning, late nights.
I also get half pay till 65, and med/dent until Medicare.

Thanks, everyone, for your good wishes. I'm alreading enjoying it, although as happens every summer, it takes a few days to get acclimated to having no official responsibilities. This one is a bit different because I don't have a pile of history books to read.

LMAO. That's funny. But here is where we will be spending a lot of time (in the summer anyway), only in the water-not in the backyard. ;) And yes, that is me sitting on it.
