Notes and Musings for Saturday, March 6, 2010
* What a beautiful Saturday it’s going to be ,,, current temperature is 38 degrees with blue skies and sunshine,,, springtime can’t be far behind
* Speaking of springtime, next Sunday is the day we must bite the bullet and set our clocks ahead one hour.
* Nothing quite beats a livermush sandwich at the Windy City Grill
* Am seriously considering getting a German Shepherd dog… have three emails out to people who have ads posted with a dog for sale and have as of yet to hear from any of them… perhaps a sign that I’m not ready for a dog, or even yet, the dog is much closer by than these.
* The are only 64 student days of school left in my teaching career… this past week I filled out the first two pieces of official paperwork to get the retirement process underway.

Did it seem odd to fill out those papers? Retirement is a huge deal and yet when it finally comes, one in which we wonder what we will do or how much we will love it.
Good luck with the dog thing. It will be some time before I get any more. Had one for 14 yrs and another for 16. Time for a break and loving it. Not so say I don’t miss them but overall, I don’t miss taking care of them or worrying about them.
Good luck!
It was definitely a reality check when I had to actually sign my name to something… While it’s not legally binding, it does set in motion the final process. I do from time-to-time catch a glimpse of the finality of it all and am sure it will occur more often as I get closer to the date…
