Porte Ponderings:

Not only is is St. Patrick’s Day, but is the anniversary of my first day of work at Canada Post in 1980.

I’ve been retired for 13 years. I’m very thankful for all the people I worked with and met during my working years. I’m also very thankful for my pension. There were times when I resented the money taken off my paycheck each month. But now when the money is deposited into my account I’m glad it wasn’t a choice as the return each month is much greater than the monthly payments 😉

The weather this year is much nicer than that first day of work. There was a terrible ice storm. I had to drive across London to return to our first apartment on Berkshire Drive. I don’t miss the commute to work.

I’ve already purchased my Provincial Park Pass for the year.
