RETIREMENT

No more TGIF anticipation.

No more ONTM dread. (Oh no, tomorrow's Monday)

No more 9-5 order. (actually started at 6)

No more phone-call screening to avoid call-ins.

No more vacation requests.

No more overtime.

No more steady paycheck.

No more Annual Maintenance Outages.

No more free coffee in control rooms.

No more friendly banter with coworkers.

No more alarm clock.

No more morning drive listening to radio preacher.

No more clocking in and out.

No more aching joints and muscles after a hard day.

No more toolbox in the corner of the pulp mill shop.

No more ...

More time to read those patiently waiting books. 

More time for chores, to-do's, hunny-do's.

More time to visit friends and family.

More time to travel.

More time to serve others.

More time to serve the Lord.

More time to be with her!

Soon enough it will be "the end" of this story; but the sequel should be great!
