Skid

I could probably either weekend. I'm pretty sure I am off both weekends. And the entire month of August. LOL

Enjoying rocking in my retirement gift...

Sounds pretty good.

Yes it is official. I am now RETIRED

The final day is here. It's only cake, ice cream & a hand shake that is left for today.

WOW Friday is coming fast and the end of a great career is about over. It's time to start Riding.

I feel the same way. After Dale passed, just lost interest.

Thanks again everyone. I plan to put lot more miles on the Midnight this summer.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. It's been a good day until Leslie put a Harley on my cake. Sorry but it's a little blurry. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/02/21/u9ujaja5.jpg

Happy 5-0

Squid I was just talking to Leslie yesterday about wonder what would happen if I showed up at the Texas Meet next month. LOL

I going into hibernation for March if this crap keeps up.

I was out having fun on 79 this morning. I was in the Crown Vic. Leslie had the Jeep.

Only ten more working days. After I get through today. Just got to get there first.

With less than one dozen days left to work. It's really is bitter-sweet.

You southerners need to move north

Love you all

Sounds great Lew. I always wanted to tour around the swamp areas. Keep the light on.

Thanks Dan, I know I can count on you.

No Dan, actually I have my own list of projects around the house from remodeling upstairs and downstairs, painting around windows, and getting electric in the garage. But not necessarily in that order... Must be that OCD thing I have.

Go ahead Dan, you can finish.

I have 24 of service and had planned on retiring this month anyway since I'll be turning the big 5-0 in a few days. As scary as it is I am looking forward to it. If these other health issues doesn't get in the way too much I got a few miles to make up this summer.

I like your way of think, and actually the doctor told me to have a "milk shake a day" to build my weight back up.

I learned today that this is not a benign tumor. This thing is showing very aggressive characteristics and very serious about spreading. The good news that a drug called Gleevec has control over these types of tumors and can cause them to shrink. Nothing promised but there is still hope. I go back after a few weeks of Gleevec and the Dr will determine if radiation is necessary at that point.

Today I started the paperwork to a new chapter in my life. I am about to join the "Retirement Group". Effective February 28, 2014 I will start my retirement years. It's not exactly what I expected to be doing starting out, but it's time to place all efforts on beating this cancer thing again. I am in limbo right now until we see what the chemo does and surgery can be done. Until then I plan to glorify my Lord and fight this terrible disease. So keep your eyes out for the "blondie" riding the Midnight for you may never know where she might show up at.
