    Doing well....but a little bit of stress happening so will have to get it under control, it is affecting my sleep again.... I think the stress is related to my retirement luncheon this afternoon. I can honestly say I haven't missed some of the people!! And the all choices to make for my pension....oh dear !!

    Gross. Work is crazy busy because next week is the end of the fiscal year. Going to move as much as possible this weekend although the heat (high 90s) has returned (hopefully for the last time).
