Hubby and I are making plans to join the land of the Retired Seniors... I don't know if I am ready for this!
His last day of work is Nov 30th.. I guess I have until then to get my " Honey Do" list ready!
I found a few tidbits about retirement to share with you.....
~When a man retires, his wife gets twice the husband but only half the income. ~Chi Chi Rodriguez
~A retired husband is often a wife's full-time job. ~Ella Harris
~The challenge of retirement is how to spend time without spending money.
~Retirement: That's when you return from work one day and say, "Hi, Honey, I'm home - forever." ~Gene Perret
I wanted to give a big THANK YOU to all the "Followers" of my novice blog... I would appreciate any help for decorating... I am not sure how to do all that ... I have visited some very beautiful blogs. I would like mine to be just as pleasing...
The beautiful " Roses Along The Track " image on the right of the blog came from the photo bucket of Caroline .....

She has some really lovely images... I thank her very much for sharing....
Here is a bit of October beauty..
"Wheels of baled hay bask in October sun:
Gold circles strewn across the sloping field,
They seem arranged as if each one
Has found its place; together they appeal
To some glimpsed order in my mind
Preceding my chance pausing here --
A randomness that also seems designed.
Gold circles strewn across the sloping field
Evoke a silence deep as my deep fear
Of emptiness; I feel the scene requires
A listener who can respond with words, yet who
Prolongs the silence that I still desire,
Relieved as clacking crows come flashing through,
Whose blackness shows chance radiance of fire.
Yet stillness in the field remains for everyone:
Wheels of baled hay bask in October sun."
