Life goes by rahter quickly....

Speaking from a perspective of this early retiree...

Yes, I haven't worked at a job full-time (I am neglecting the job that I've had for 22 years, being the farmer's daughter, that's the full time job plus several overtimes.) and I am already considering myself an early retiree.

Wait, wait, wait. Allow me to explain myself.

I just graduated from college, I just finished my gig as a student teacher at two different placements.

Now, I have been finding several different things to keep myself busy. Hosting "Rachel's Party!", attending bridal showers (five thus far from March 14); rekindling my hobby as digital scrapbooking.

But, good news! I just got hired as a transition teacher at Idaho School for the Deaf, so I'll be stepping down from my retirement status to start contributing back to the society for the next thirty plus years.

J-term

As much as I've enjoyed my Christmas break, I'm trying to get myself back in gear to get ready for school again. I will take two classes: Capstone- Religion and Politics in Film and Reading Theory. We'll see how it spins out.

On a different note... my college roommate, Alissa is off to great places, namely, AFRICA! She is keeping her own blog: www.alissainafrica.blogspot.com. She will keep it updated (yes, pressure on HER! grin) during her 11 weeks stay in Africa.

Keep her in your prayers! :)

Cheers, happy VOOF! (Fingerspell it to yourself and figure it out!)
