Friday Favorites

 



Having served his country faithfully for 30+ years, Vic will retire from the Navy on October 1, 2024.  His retirement orders came yesterday so it's OFFICIAL.



To celebrate the end of his Navy career and the start of a new chapter, I bought Vic a new computer.  He's taking an online certification course and tweaking his resume for a couple of upcoming opportunities so I thought he would enjoy the bigger screen.  The reference to Match.com came from a couple at our church.  They are both over 80, have been married 3 years, and met on Match.com!



I have to say that the new computer purchase was a little selfish, too.  I'm all about symmetry and now our desks and desktops will match!

  2. Thank you, Vic, for your faithful service to our country! What an accomplishment to retire after 30 years. You have an exciting fall ahead of you as he does something new! I love the new computer and the story about the 80 year old couple that met. How sweet! I love stories like that, how older people find companions to spend the rest of their days with. Have a great day and weekend, my friend!
