The details aren't important anymore as they were a few years ago when uncertainty surrounded us when an unexpected health issue forced the end to a great work-life. The fact that a beautiful landing spot such as The Villages had been prepared for us and that we found it easily was and is a miracle in our lives and we are very grateful in every way for it. I was only 57 when we were shocked that the work-life had to stop immediately. I kept going until I was 58 because I was built to work and just couldn't deal with the news that I had to stop. The Doctor put it directly to me and I stopped the next day.

I have had so many people in my personal and old work-life pass during 2019. I'm so sorry for their families but it makes me even more grateful that my situation had a softer landing. It's true that there are no guarantees. Today was the best I could make it and if I get tomorrow I'm going to try and make it even better. And onward we go!
