    I've got 9 months left at my current job, then moving. My hubby will still be working, but I'm going to try auction dealing. I've been playing at it for a month and it's SO much fun! I'm considering it training for my next job right now. But it's seriously cutting into my sewing time!

    I'm planning to retire in three years and really looking forward to it. I'll have to live like a pauper but it will be worth it to be able to work on reducing my fabric stash making quilts. I love my job, but I've been working a long time and I'm tired.

    I have 5 years before I can retire, I don't plan to stop working, just work from home, looking forward to being my own boss. Lately, I've been thinking about it alot and doing some planning ahead. I'm working on paying off some debt, also stash building for the future.
