Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler A fond farewell to some good friends

Though I will miss seeing your posts, I can attest to the benefits of having mom home with the family; my wife "retired" from her teaching job 11 years ago when our second was born, and is just now getting back to teaching by subbing a day here and there. I say retired with tongue-in-cheek because she works harder as mom than when she was just teaching. A short day is 14h.
We have 15, 11, and 5 at home and all are on honor roll. The eldest is a Life Scout working on Eagle, and 11 is changing rank faster than his brother did. My wife is Committee Chair for the Boy Scout Troop as well as Roundtable Chair for the local Cub Scouts - of which we have none anymore. I'd like to think to think I had something to do with their success, other than the obvious, but it's all her.

Enjoy your time with the family because it goes by in a blink. Best of luck on your new endeavor!

ditto to all the aforementioned comments of eloquence
(i have a broken knuckle and cannot type my usual ten pager)

All the best Amie and yes, we do plan on making another visit to the factory hopefully in the near future. Perhaps you could time your visit to the factory at the same time, since it would be expected that you will no longer greet us at the door.
Will James now provide the big first smile and free perfume samples?

I think Amie should make an appearance as Special Guest Moderator on certain festive days.

Like Fridays, Hump day (Wednesdays), Grump days (Monday) and the nothing-better-to-do-but-post-in-forums Sundays.
But that's it.
That's all i would ask for.

Chess Though, you did miss lunch reports, but I guess thats a special event.


That about says it all. It seems like just yesterday that my daughter was born, yet she is only 2 years away from higher education.

Bye Amie,

Glad to hear you will be able to spend more time with your real family but know that your virtual family will miss you.

Cheers,
Dean

Really enjoyed your contributions to the board over the years Amie, and will miss you.

Amie, you can't leave me here with all these guys! With all sincerity, I will miss your posts. Please drop by here from time to time...if anything, just to check up on us. Thanks for all the years of making this board a nice and friendly place to visit.

Here's hoping you really do check in... and often. Congratulations on what I'm calling your retirement! Naturally, you'll have to stop by just to update us on your evolving golf game.

They can play golf on the tundra? :P
