I have retired from my consulting business and from 30 years as a marketing, business development and strategic planning executive in health care. It was not an easy decision.
With the encouragement of my stepdaughter Kim Westra I have begun working part time as a substitute teacher. For the first time in my life I'm licensed. Think of subsitute teaching as a job where each assignment is like the first day of work on a new job.
Pat and I have sold our home in south Minneapolis. Yesterday we closed on a town home in Maplewood, a suburb of St. Paul. We close on the sale of our home in Minneapolis in May. When it's all done we will have halved our square footage, eliminated all debt and reduced our housing cost by 70%.
Those are the headlines for me over the past 8 months.
