And this Independence Day is very special to me. Yesterday afternoon I learned that the agency I work for is downsizing its Denver office, so they announced a retirement incentive to get people to retire. So I am getting (almost certainly) an extra $25,000 payment to retire at the end of September, something I was going to do anyway. That's enough to pay off the car loan on Peggy's new Jeep, so I won;t even have to take a part-time job. How's that for independent? Starting in September I'm gong to be out in the garage almost full time, turning expensive wood into sawdust and furniture. I have just about completed a cherry bed in twin size for my 4 year old and Theo, who's six, wants me to build one for him. And for those of you who are wondering why I am back posting here: I truly believe that we are now free of our problem person. I have refrained from posting because of the ongoing unpleasantness, but I think we can now put paid to that whole chapter. Happy Birthday, USA!!!
