Congrats, K-Bug & her C! Congrats, Nana Suzi! Welcome, Odin!
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Welcome BABY ODIN!
Well, we had our first COVID retirement today. I know we have been lucky as a department to be mostly untouched thus far by illness or departures of any kind, but still sad. Spouse of employee has major health issues, heart function, and employee is 70! I had no idea they were that old. I've been debating calling my retirement guy and seeing what would be needed to move my retirement up to 59 or 60. If I get in 10 years at current job I am vesting in the government retirement and that would be good. It might be more than I can sock away between now and then, but it also just might be doable if I putt $$ to retirement that I am just spending now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They offered a really good early retirement package at my job, and I'm kind of devastated about the people who are taking it! And then there's the guy who we keep including in that group, but he graduated from college in 1967! That's not early retirement, man!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Mr. Bug came home for a shower and to grab a few things. He also brought me the hospital beanie Odin has been wearing so we can let the dogs sniff and get a bit familiar with the smell. I know their world is about to get rocked.

Wait, isn't K-Bug still about fourteen years old? That's pretty young to have your first Odin.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Congratulations on New Baby!
