I Am Free!

Good-bye
old job!

I
AM
FREE!

FREE AT LAST!

I no longer have
to put up with
the
daily drudge
of a job.

And, although I loved
the job itself~
and have the highest regard
for the health facility I
worked for....
I am happy to move on.

I can't tell you how excited I
am to move into the
next phase of my
life!

I will be sharing more
about what I am doing
soon.

I have a whole new
adventure planned
right after the
new baby is
born!

Blessings!
I am singing..
Oh Happy Day!
Can you hear it?
Is it running through
your head now?
Good!
Now you will be smiling
(or cursing)
all day.

I am off for Starbucks
and a sit about
with a few friends.
Life is good!

OH Happy Day!! Now I can plan my trip without working around your work schedule! Just think, with both of us retired, the trouble we can get into. I know those plans, I think that I remember what you had in mind, before this job took over and put a stop to them....
Love ya, see ya soon....

How did I miss this? Congratulations! You will love the life of leisure.

BTW, if someone is new here they may think that you are the one having the baby "I have a whole new adventure planned right after the new baby is
born". Just saying, that would be a whole new venture!
