My Friend Retires

She walked today,
always there, sixteen years, and
I am at a loss.

It's so hard when friends move on, especially when you're used to seeing them almost every day for sixteen years! Sorry for your struggle, Jim. Hugs

It is weird coming to work and not seeing her. She will be doing a lot of traveling, already with plans to go to Alabama, Texas, Massachusetts, and Costa Rica, and that is just this summer. So I should be happy, right. :)
