The Official Activities List--So Far December 11, 2012

The Official Activities List--So Far
 
December 11, 2012
 
     Thank you to everyone who has read some or all of my posts since I began this blog in early November.
 
     I just viewed each post, around 30, and now you can see the activities I believe may keep my attention after I officially retire next year.
 
     I am adding a Number 15:  writing more thank you notes to people who make my life happier and more enjoyable by the little things they do.

     There you have it:  the list.

     May I be perfectly clear in saying this is not a bucket list!

     If I keep this up, let me do the math, I will have approximately 150+ additional possible retirement activities in the next 10 months. 

     Now it's time to go do some laundry before I go to work.
