Tomorrow is December 11th. Andrew would have been 33. Crazy.
Much has changed in 6 years as both Dan & Vicki are out on their own and both employed. Cheryl is working on her Masters in Island Studies and finding new and exciting adventures through this program including potential travel to other Islands. I am hoping to retire early in the coming months as I wait for a new Federal program that allows for early retirement without penalty to be implemented. I am looking forward to getting away from the Federal system as I feel completely burned out and frustrated with current changes to the system.
It has been a long road to this point employment-wise as I look back and realize that the job served me well over the years when I needed it, even though I had never planned to work for government, but now it is time for me to move on. I will have much more to say on this topic, but I am reluctant to delve too deeply until the retirement process has been completed. I will add that this reminds me of when I left Watts Communications 25 years ago, but on a much larger scale.
Happy birthday Andrew. As always your presence is felt and continues to shape how our family evolves. You would be happy to know that we all seem to get along well and that everyone seems to be moving forward in their lives.
