I received MORE cards and presents..
and another balloon..
really I SHOULD have done this years ago!! Such fun times and presents xx I am now officially retired .. and have been given the job of organising the units "outings" for the next 12 months!! Even though I don't work there any more !! lol x
Two more squares came in ..
and more are promised x
MY VERY FAVOURITE GIFT was a poem especially written for me by a colleague .. I'm going to reproduce it for you all to share ..
A funny scary special nurse
Wicked humour so perverse
Scary quips so very dry
Scrowling looks could make you cry
But when events become extreme
She'd take charge and calm the team
Tell the doctors what to do
OH hang on that's nothing new
But underneath the formal stare
A kind and caring heart lurks there
We know you think you hide it well
But we can see it we can tell
We really hope that you enjoy
your escape from this employ
Lots of time to mend and sew
Tend your garden watch it grow
Walk the dogs and see you kin
Lots of time to fit this in
So we slog on
Under duress
BUT YOU'VE SURVIVED THE NHS X
This was the only time I got close to crying xx
Hope you enjoyed it x

This is a lovely poem and so special for being written just for you. It's great that you're still included in things by doing the outings organising. Best of both worlds methinks!
how lovely, especially the poem!
What a lovely poem. I think I would have been a mess
What a lovely tribute. It sounds as if you'd have made a good teacher too; being able to use 'the look' is so important!
What a lovely tribute to you.
Glad you had such a fun time - and what a wonderful poem, especially for you!
Way cool!!!
Really special! I suspect your "retirement" will be a busy time.
Enjoy...you'll soon wonder how you had time to go to work!
