04/26/2021 - The Beginning

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.
