Happy New Year and best wishes for a great 2020. From the AP Newswire this morning, they had this headline: “Cheers, tears, prayers for 2020: A new decade is ushered in” with these highlights: “Revelers around the globe are bidding farewell to a decade that will be remembered for the rise of social media, the Arab Spring, the #MeToo movement. More than a million people descended on a hazy Sydney Harbour and surrounding areas ahead of the ringing in of the new year despite the ongoing wildfire crisis ravaging New South Wales, Australia’s most populous state.” Full AP story and pictures at: https://apnews.com/5ad9012c0e0aa91f816d57da58a176a1 THANKS!

So, we hope you’ll enjoy this New Year’s Eve flight even though you’ll miss the fireworks.” 😢 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted December 31, 2019 #3284 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Hi coolers, wishing all of you a very Happy 2020---health to all of us (yes, me included). I have a Dr appt on Friday with my Oncologist. And of course today was my LAST DAY AT WORK!!!!!!!!!!. It really has not totally sunk in yet. Maybe after my cruise in 2 weeks and I realize I don't have to go back to work? LOL...…... No plans for the next few days. I fly to Ft. Lauderdale on 1/15 and sail on The Wind on 1/16. Thanks for being my friends 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camillus112 Posted December 31, 2019 #3286 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Dear Lois, From someone who retired from an overwhelming job as I think you did, you have to come back from your cruise to a Plan A. I mean, join, or develop, some activity you always wanted to do and never had time to. Something that you would find very rewarding. I worked for over 40 years with numbers (statistics, correlations, etc.) but I was always missing time to work with words. This is what I am doing now and love it!! Lois, please reflect into what makes you happy and engage!! You will not regret it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jpalbny Posted December 31, 2019 #3287 Share Posted December 31, 2019 All this retirement talk is making me jealous! Lois, all the best and I hope you enjoy every minute of it. We will figure out a way to join you in a few years. Less than 10, I hope! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillyf Posted December 31, 2019 #3288 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Happy New Year everyone. Health and Happiness to you all. A rather somber country with the terrible fires raging up and down the coast. Most of the coastal towns have huge population explosions of holiday makers at this time of year which adds to the problem of keeping everyone safe. To all the people heading off to their next cruise, I wish you Bon Voyage. I am envious and plan to travel along with the blogs. Happy retirement Lois. I know you will enjoy it!👏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for being my friends Enjoy your retirement Lois. I retired early 8½ years ago. It's the best career move I ever made and I'm loving retirement. I'm sure you will too. Just make sure you tick off some of your bucket list. I did number 2 last year and ticking off number one in February. So get planning 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted January 1, 2020 #3294 Share Posted January 1, 2020 My BIG Bucket List is going dowunder….that will be 2021---need to figure out the best time of year to visit. Jilly, what do you suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted January 2, 2020 #3296 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Good morning coolers....well, the first day----this would be a lax week since it is the holiday and a short week. Tomorrow I have my Dr appt at the Oncologist to discuss the Radiation treatments. AND I sail 2 weeks from today I have some things I want to do so maybe next week---like do a bunch of cleaning out of clothing I have not worn in forever. And cleaning some other stuff that has been sitting around in the guest room. It is strange being home at 9:30am on a weekday though LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Lois R Posted January 4, 2020 #3300 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Hi coolers, I went to see my Oncologist today and will be starting radiation treatments on Jan 27th. It will be 5 days a week for 4 weeks so basically through the month of February. They gave me all sorts of paperwork to read up on....they have specific items they want you to use...certain body wash & deodorant to use while going through the treatment. The side effect is not bad at all.....many women say it feels like a sunburn but no sickness or losing hair or anything. The Dr is really nice and explained many things to me. He also told me to have a fun on my cruise and so I will…...2 more weeks till I sail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
