Retired and raring to go!!

Holding forth at my retirement lunch
Look at that dessert!  Had to fight Mark for it!
This has been a long time coming I know - disappeared down a dark hole there for a bitty, however, I hope I'm back for good. It didn't help that my lovely gentle Diva Dog Mitzi died leaving Jock and me a bit bereft but we've shaken down pretty well except he is as fat as a pig - I must be feeding him for 2!!  But enuff gloom - this is bonus time and I am hoping I can put it to good use - and give something back for all the people who helped me.  Anyroad, that's the plan, Stan.

One of the things I have done is finally renovated and upgraded my little home space.  You'll find the photos on Facebook - look under Albums.  I am totally in love with the look of the whole place, as well of course as the opportunity to invite people to my home and do the Australian lifestyle thing of outdoors, etc.  Yes, I am trying hard to be "normal" - LOL
I have to admit it's really freaky not to have to work anymore - I still have the urge to get the 1.00pm bus to work!!  But after a fortnight of sitting watching TV, I'm refreshed and rejuvenated and want to sew the stack of stuff awaiting me - and which I hate to say has been waiting since late 2011!

So wish me luck as I go on my newest adventure!
