Yesterday was a Great Day!

Yesterday was a great day - my son has returned safe from Afghanistan!

The 525 BfSG marching in

Waiting for speeches and songs to end

Finally! Mom gets to hug her soldier!

After he'd gotten a chance to rest and shower he, my DIL and I went to dinner and saw Captain America.

An aside: I recently switched to Chrome so I could use a Google + extension that's only available on Chrome. When I tried to post this yesterday the photo uploader in Blogger refused to work. I was tired so I gave up and went to bed. Today I'm using Firefox and it works just fine. Anyone know why Blogger has this problem with Chrome? I find it odd that two Google owned things don't work together.

Dawno Has "Retired"

Today was my last day at Cisco. The company offered an "enhanced early retirement" package and I accepted.

What's next? Not sure - I know I'm going to take some time off to relax, visit with family, go to World Con in Reno...after that I'm not sure. I will have time for blogging, beading and catching up on my reading, though!
