Our new tractor came today!!! I’m so excited.... we have a REALLY old one that I my husband refused to replace. I asked him why one time and he said “because it’s the only thing here that I know you can’t mess with” [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I never started counting the years until I was almost there - 5 years to go. . . 3 years to go. . . and then, lo and behold, the company needed to get rid of employees so they made us an offer, so many years added onto our years of service and so much money to get out of Dodge. So I retired with 30 years, but really only 28 years of actual service. I spent a few years as a lady of leisure, then they called and asked if I'd come back and do my same job only as an employee of a contracting firm. More money because they don't pay insurance, etc. So I contracted for a few years. That was GOOD money!!! Then I retired again and now I really am a lady of leisure. I wouldn't go back for any amount of money.
