Well, I am glad I am retiring in another year or so. My husband is retiring next December. I have mostly part time. One is 11 years old, so the age 13 hike will affect me. I have nobody under the age of 2 and most will be 4 by December 2015 and in full time junior kindergarten. I will only have one 3 1/2 year old. My dilemma is...do I bail at the end of December and maybe leave my school kids in the lurch, or finish at the end of August, 2015 and tell my parents to find other arrangements for the school year. I really would like to keep the one 3 1/2 year old until the end of June 2016 (his dad is a teacher) but is it worth it for one kid when my husband is retired? If I decide to wait until December to quit with my husband, I would give parents at least 2 months notice and they can leave as soon as they find alternative arrangements. I am really tired of dropping off and picking up school kids at different schools and in bad weather.

June
