So Monday, April 26th 2021 was a special day ... It was Sue's birthday and also the official day of my retirement from 27 years of government service.
Eighteen years in the US Army as a mechanic and nine years at the Veterans Administration as a network administrator.
Initially in the Imaging department (PACS Admin) and then in Biomedical Engineering (Medical Device Networking Specialist).
I had already cleared station on Friday the 23rd and saw no real reason to go in for that last day on Monday, so I verified with the timekeeper that I could take a single day of LWOP (Leave Without Pay) and suffer no consequences either finanically or any other way ... it would be a wash ... I don't go in, they don't pay me, I don't lose any leave.
Plus I get to stay home for my wife's birthday ! Win-Win-Win.
So I am officially retired and looking forward to see what this next chapter brings.
Updated blog name. We made some life changes recently and are loving it. Based on Mike's recent retirement, searching for hobbies, and we downsized EVERYTHING ... maybe an occasional word on our local hockey team.
