Last week, I was able to gather with other retired teachers from my school for lunch. There were some amazing displays!

Oh, what a lovely place this is!! I'm sure you thoroughly enjoyed being surrounded by so much festive beauty, and the fellowship with fellow retired teachers must have been rich!

Lovely decorations! So fun and festive! You retired teachers have much to be grateful for...you don't have to deal with the new Common Core and all the other stuff that is coming into our educational system. The longer I teach, the more I am looking forward to retirement. Glad you had a nice Christmas!
