Paper Work

In my retirement meeting at ROSSAC

Visited the school district personnel office today to go over the paperwork involved in actually retiring and receiving the pension from the State of Florida. There were about 12 people there today to go over their paperwork. We all met at first together and a lady went over the entire process and touched on all the paperwork we had received in a folder when we got there.
After that they saw 4 of us at a time individually with a person from HR to go over and explain exactly what we could expect in the next few months and the paperwork we needed to fill out for all the different entities involved in my retirement and near future.
This did take a while, I think that there was about as much paperwork as buying a house.  I did have the advantage of having Jan with me and she went through this same process about 2 years ago when she retired and was a great help to me keeping everything straight.
I'll go over my notes this weekend and figure out what I need to do next. It will probably be to call Matt at Valic and seek his guidance.  But for now I think I'll just work on my next big adventure.

Radiation Therapy

Dr. Galloway and the gang over at West Florida Radiation Therapy have developed a very efficient process of treating their patients. I arrive about 5 minutes before my scheduled treatment time. The waiting room is often empty in spite of having plenty of chairs. I have my temperature taken and wash my hands. Then within a minute or two I will have my name called. As I'm going back to the treatment room there is usually another guy just coming out of that room.  When the technicians are ready they call me in and I climb onto the treatment table. After I'm on the table my feet and legs are aligned using a hard pillow that is molded to my legs and feet. Then the table is moved into position and the technicians adjust me using lasers and my aiming tattoos.  The techs then leave the room and the machines take over. First two arm move into position to x-ray me to determine the position of my prostate. The table will make slight adjustments itself to move me into the best position. A...

Trip to Evansville In.

  For the past week or so Jan and I have been visiting her dad and sister in Evansville In. Or as Art calls it Heavinsville. We came up originally to help Mary with her house. She is painting and carpeting several rooms. Because of Covid Jan's dad Art has moved from his apartment into Mary's house. We came down to help Art while he stayed with us at a hotel and the house got recarpeted.  Well that all went sideways first day at the hotel. Art who is 96 started feeling poorly and eventually it was decided to call an ambulance to transport him to the emergency room for, as my daughter calls it a little heart tune-up. It was quite an adventure having a firetruck and ambulance arrive at our hotel and all crowd into our room.  At the hospital because of Covid only one other person was allowed in and it was decided that Jan would stay and I would head back to Mary's house. Now a funny story of events before the ambulance arrived. I had gone to take a rest in our hotel room whil...
