Happy Retirement

Hi everyone:

I'm doing this post during my lunch break, so it's going to be a quick one. Hope everyone is enjoying this day - it's cloudy here making the temperature not so hot today.

As some of you may know, I work in a law firm that does real estate and I work in the title services section, which handles title searches, title policies, etc. We had a lady from one of the title companies I work with frequently retire yesterday and I made her this card for us to sign and take with me to her retirement party last night. I am very happy for her, but will miss her terribly (Kathy, make sure you call me when you can). I was hoping to find a "retirement" stamp in my stash at home, but didn't find anything so I just used the congratulations sentiment - I was going to say "best wishes" but Jim said that didn't fit the occasion :) Since I failed to take a photo of the card, I scanned it in here at work, squishing the bow, but all in all it turned out okay.

I hope you are all having a great day and are excited about the weekend coming up.

I'll see you soon.

Janet
