Retired from DOD after 32 years, primarily due to health problems. However the health issues are better these days and I do occassional consulting work. Have been involved in a complete re-do of our house over the last 4 years. My husband and I are still the happy human companions for a 12 year old Springer Spaniel, named Chloe and a 12 year old Vizsla named Sadie. They are slowing up a little but so am I. They take good care of us.
Just an update, our beloved Springer and Vizsla both left this earth about 2 and a half years ago. The house was too quiet without our furry friends and we know we will never have another Chloe or Sadie, we know have a spirited Vizsla named Sophie. She will be 2 in December and is running me ragged, but we both love it.
