Dear friends,
Yesterday I retired from my job as a bridal alterationist. After 20
years at Modern Bride & Formal Shop my fibromyalgia and other health
issues have gotten the better of me making it difficult to do the job i
loved with my co-workers that were like family to me. I will miss the
book discussions and fun, the sorrows shared and divided, the joys and
triumphs celebrated.

Perhaps I will be able to start stitching again. I still have WIPS and
UFOs hanging around

Bobbie V.

Although it's not under the best circumstances, I would like to congratulate you on your retirement. I just wish you had better health in which to enjoy it. But isn't that usually the case? We work our lives away until our health forces us to take it easy. Stitch on...even if it's only 10 stitches a day, it's a start toward a finished piece.

Congratulations, Bobbie!!!!!!! :-) Keep up with the co workers and look at the WIPS and UFOs as physical therapy with no deadlines.

Congratulations. You can still stay in touch with your co-workers and
stitching is so much fun. You will find yourself busier now than before.

Yaaaay! Congrats to you, Bobbie! From what I've heard from other
retirees, you will really enjoy it. I hope your fibro doesn't give you
*too* much trouble!

Happy stitching!

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
