You hope it never happens, you don’t want it to happen, but deep down you know it’s inevitable – you’ve got a leak in your rig.
Month: June 2020
February 28, 2020, my husband officially retired from his job with the railroad. His best friend planned a luncheon followed by cake, heartfelt speeches, and well wishes at the office. I was invited as a surprise guest. It was a wonderful send-off.
We drove off into the afternoon sun, excited about what was to come. Hubby took a deep breath and chuckled as I rattled off a list of tasks to be tackled and checked-off before we embarked on our journey – our Freedom Run – on April 1.

One of the most difficult aspects of this lifestyle is learning how to say goodbye.
My first thought, when attempting to arrange a time to meet with my inner circle of friends – which was a lot like herding cats – was to say, “This isn’t really ‘goodbye’. I’ll be back from time to time, so it’s really ‘until next time’.” Truthfully, however, I was saying goodbye.
