Can I first say that Surly’s Ito sweater is stunning??? Do not be a bit surprised to see a giant replica in the future!!
Okay. Today is my first official day of retirement. I have had Fridays off for years, so today doesn’t seem that different, and yet it does. My work life is over…well, except for my part-time “job” at The Yarnery! I purposely scheduled myself to teach tomorrow so I would feel like I still worked. Now, with polar temps and husband gone all weekend, I question that decision!! It means I have to walk the dog, etc., etc. Usually I don’t mind, but it really is cold!
My first trip will be to see Surly and her new puppy. I can’t go until March so I hope he is still teeny tiny!! Other than that it will be life as usual!! Thanks for all of the well wishes and celebrations!
Congratulations on your retirement! Here’s to many happy & healthy more years of knitting & travel fun!

Congratulations on your retirement! While the weather isn’t nice, I think you were wise to plan a transition weekend for yourself!

Welcome to retirement. It is a wonderful way to live. You will be so busy you’ll wonder how you got things done when you worked.
