So I told my boss

[mojosmom]

that I was planning on retiring at the end of June, and in the course of the discussion I mentioned that I'd be turning 63 this summer. And he said, "Really? I never would have guessed."

Made my day!

Aw, c'mon! I figured you were maybe one or two years older than me, but not that much.

You wear it very well, especially considering the worries of your job.

Ooh, you're sweet!

I'm not surprised. You certainly have the energy of a young person. When we met, if I hadn't known better, I would have guessed you were my age or younger.

[mojosmom.livejournal.com]

Maybe not quite as energetic as when we met, but I try.

And quite right too!

Honestly, I would have never guessed that either.

Oh wow! I never would have guessed either. I'd have said ten years younger...

Thank you!

Are you really thinking of retiring?!!!

wow

And you look wonderful, as everyone has already mentioned.

Not just thinking of it, I'm definitely going to do it. I'm pretty sure that 6/30 will be my last day at work.

You take good care of yourself.
And, you'll have more time to do the things you really like! You'll wonder how you ever had time to work, ha ha!

It's true! I have a retired friend who is always going to the theatre, is in three book clubs, a couple of service organizations, etc. I always say to her, "how did you find time to work?"
