Not an easy thing to pass the baton.....

NOooooooo not soon at all! I'm workin' till I drop! We can't all afford to go out early!

My boss, Ernest, has started calling me grandpa. I guess it's o.k. as long as he keeps calling me.

That's the ticket!

Hey, they can call me 'great' grandpa and mean it ... and she is just about the most precious thing in my world ...

The clock is always ticking..

Debbie Downer is back!
Admit it - you wouldn't be retired right now if our circumstances were the same. You've got a financial out that I'll never have .... and that means: I gotta work.
Luckily, I LOVE my work ... so let the clock tick. None of us have a clue as to how many ticks we have. In the end - they'll mark our birth year, then a dash, and our death year. I prefer to LIVE THE DASH.

(didn't make that up - here's the story)

Dave, “it's Donny who's in adjustment mode!”

We all must go through the adjustment mode sooner or later. How we handle it; what we feed our minds, is up to us. It can be a nightmare or a beautiful journey.

I am thankful for people like Gary, Don and Tony, they share great stories about going through their adjustment mode. Facts, just rolling through it, and the love of family. And I understand every time a look at my granddaughter I know everything is more than just OK.

PS, Dave, Oh, I still have loads of time with audiences - it's Donny who's in adjustment mode! Dave, none of us know how much time we have left wih audiences!
Dave, I love, love, love the poem DASH, it says good things about you.

John, You’ve said a mouthful!

Great message in the ‘Dash” poem!!
