Today I advised my employer that I will be retiring, probably by October. I hope to join my bishop and his wife in developing a residential monastery in the Poconos in Pennsylvania. I am so happy to be leaving the 9-5 behind! Just not commuting will save about 4 hours a day. I will be poor but happy, I think! My daughter and grandson will be displeased, but it is past time my daughter stood on her own two feet and I have no doubt of my grandson's ability to make his own way in the world.
A time to sow and a time to reap.
I look forward to time to write a couple of books I have in mind. Even if only my friends read them, I will enjoy writing. Always have.
Dearest Lord, how grateful I am to have had such a good job - and how happy I am to be leaving it!
