"Man, I wish our school board would make Thanksgiving break a week! "
They just did that here in two local school districts.
I'm blessed to live in a garden spot - so beautiful here, so beautiful there. I don't really have much of a winter to run away from so what pulls me to Jamaica each year for the months that I'm there are my friends and community and - I call it moving from one soft spot to another....
With the downturn of the economy in 2008 things are tougher, not easier as the hub and I "age". Combine that with climbing cost of living everywhere...well, that retirement dream has definitely been modified and put off. I can't count on retiring as soon as I would have thought and with time comes wisdom and reality.
