| Hey Hats! Thank you so much for remembering. The day has been spent watching football with my Mom...and watching our home team lose (Boo!) but my college teams won yesterday so the weekend wasn't horrid. I also close on a new house tomorrow...a very expensive gift to myself. Retiring in a couple of months so the age I'm at has a lot of positives! Thanks again, Hats. | |

| Thank you for the warm birthday greetings, Gelert!
And yes, Hats, the retirement will be spent returning to my two favorite hobbies, playing games and oil painting. Lots to do between now and then, but the planning is fun in and of itself! | |

| Ohhhh oil painting. I envy you jk. Is there anything in particular that you paint ? I just could never master oil painting so I just stick to water color and drawing. Yes the planning is fun.

| Retirement in itself can be seen as a great gift. Congrats to you for reaching that milestone, and the new house to retire into. Hope your birthday was a fun one. | |

| Thank you, Lakerz! I paint mostly landscapes, Hats. Here are two that I have here in my office: " /> I've also painted animals, seascapes, a portrait. Bascially whatever looks interesting....usually from photographs, calendars, etc. | |

| Thanks, Hats. I used to really enjoy painting. Haven't touched a brush in 20 plus years. Hope I still remember how. I never took a liking to water colors like you. I actually think water colors are harder and less forgiving than oils. | |

| I'm sure you'll be able to pick right back up on painting with very little trouble jk/ You are right water color can be unforgiving. But I enjoy it for a break from drawing hatshepsut | |

| jkeerie, WOW! You really know what you're doing with painting. Those both look quite great, I'm impressed. I hope you'll show us a snapshot of your latest creation once you're finished and happy with it. | |

| Thanks. lakerz! It will be a while before I touch the brushes again. The first couple of months post-retirement will be packing up and hauling boxes to the new house 100 plus miles away. Once I'm settled, though, I've got one that's half-finished that I'll have to decide whether to start over or pick up where I left off. | |
