On the best of days I’m not exactly full of the Christmas spirit. My kids and grandkids are thousands of miles away and even the nephew is leaving the country for the holidays. As things stand now I’ll be spending a solitary Christmas here in the countryside.
But all is not lost because I spent a wonderful day yesterday with my work family.
I lead an amazing team of hard working professionals. It truly is an honor and privilege to be associated with this cheerful bunch!
Were it not for my Deputy Donna I’d actually have to work for a living!
The staff did an amazing job decorating our office suite…
Me and the Mrs….
And we treated ourselves to some sweet treats. I baked the cupcakes and brownies, Leb prepared his renowned rum cake and it was damn the carbs, full speed ahead!
We went off site to AK Plaza in the afternoon for a Korean buffet dinner…
Played some games and did a gift exchange…
It’s good to be the boss man! I know I am going to miss my working life more than I care to admit. But all things must end. Going to do my best to enjoy every minute I have left before my May departure.
Best wishes for the holiday season to all my faithful readers. Here’s hoping 2018 will provide many cheerful experiences to blog about. Hey, it could happen!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you as well, John. All the best for 2018, and for your new future in Southeast Asia—coming soon to a theater near you!
I see Dennis put in an appearance.
MERRY CRISTMAS. May next year be your year of happiness.
Jerry
Thanks, Jerry. Yeah, Dennis is back for more.
How’s retired life?
Have a good one, John! Almost 2018, talk about living in the future…
