I awoke this morning to the sound of a gentle rain. I rolled over and went back to sleep. I love to sleep in the rain. The only thing that would have made it better was if it were thunderstorms.
All my life I have wanted to do this. Wake up on a weekday to rain and get to go back to sleep. I hated to get up and go to school when it was raining. Work was even worse. Atlanta traffic sucks, but when it rains it's many times worse. Forget about how badly Atlanta drivers do in snow. Rain is equally bad. All you have to do is spit on the pavement and you'll have a three car pileup.
So yeah, I rolled over and went back to sleep and pitied those poor souls battling the traffic jams on the interstates during rush hour.
I love retirement!

Posted by: Mushy on April 26, 2007 02:08 PMDenny...guaranteed...retirement is the best career move you'll ever make! Been at it now for close to 10 yrs. Never regretted a day of it. Only one problem.....time flies by so fast. Enjoy!

Can't do it forevermore, but dang, it sure was nice

No, really I am always happy to see folks enjoying their earned retirement. I am so far away from it that I cannot relate.

Posted by: vetfromhell on April 27, 2007 01:07 AMDenny- I burned a CD of songs with thunderstorms in them- Among them are "Uncle Albert" by Paul McCartney, "Wishing You Were Here" by Chicago, "Riders On The Storm" by the Doors, and especially "Love, Reign O'er Me" by the Who. Great stuff to listen to anytime...
