Last staff meeting

Today I started out with an interview with Social Security to get survivor benfits from Larrys account. I just need to show them my marriage license to prove I was married to the man. I know I was married to him. But I can't find our license so I had to send to Wyoming to get a copy. A lot of states you can order and pay for it on line but not Wyoming. I didn't have my checks for my new Checking account Saturday so Melody went with me to buy a money order. When we came home and checked the mail guess what my checks were there. Any way I mailed the money order and request off today. After the interview I went to Ash Creek for my last Monday of getting up and going to work.

We always have staff meeting and donuts on Monday mornings. I got there in time for my last staff meeting. There was another employee and myself who both liked the apple fritters so we usually fought over the fritter. He was there before me and when I walked in he said he was going to be nice and let me have the fritter but guess what there wasn't one as the donuts were from a different donut shop. I gave him a hard time about his being so nice since there wasn't one. He just winked and laughed. I guess I will probably get more harassment from the employees since this is my last week. They are already telling me I have short timers diesase. I tell you they are a wonderful company to work for. They have been great through all of the past year and a half with Larry's illness. I will greatly miss them all. I am sure I will shed some tears Friday when I leave. I will never forget them and their kindness to Larry and myself.

I will keep in touch with them and hope when I am in Portland for visits I will be able to see some of them. But I am excited about my new life and adventures. Everyone has been supportive on facebook and my pogo friends. I have had several invites to get together if I am in their neck of the woods on my adventures. It would be exciting to meet people I have talked to on the internet for several years. So don't be surprised it sometime you get an e-mail or I post on my blog I am headed your way.

I am excited about not having to get up at 5:30 everyday during the week. I am looking forward to having coffee in the morning. I usually didn't drink coffee at home because I would rather sleep just a little longer but now I can enjoy coffee or tea. Four days and counting down to the next chapter in my life. I still have several months worth of things to finish up before I can take off to live with my kids but I am looking forward to everyday and enjoy whatever the day brings ( well I won't promise to enjoy everything).
