30 years in service

In a few months, hubby will be retiring from work after 30 years of service. However, he is only 49 and couldn’t afford to be out of job with our two kids still in school. He might still be hired as a consultant though. Still, he needs an extra job to support the family. We don’t want to expect anything yet (financial benefit from retirement) at this point for we know how difficult it is for those who retired ahead of my husband. But who knows the company might be generous enough to award hubby another loyalty ring similar to a masonic ring here. We are keeping our fingers crossed and options open.

A special kind of gift

This holiday season try to make a different kind of gift to someone you don’t know. How about donating a portion of your hair to an organization that produces wig for cancer patients? This may sound new to you. But hair donation has been going on for years now. I’ve mention in my other blog that a friend has donated several inches of her hair for a good cause. She said it is her little way of helping patients needing them. She urges everyone to follow the same. She said those who wish to donate their hair but timid to cut their hair short may wear ultimate looks wigs until they grow back. For someone who lost a loved one to cancer, my friend said hair donation means so much to cancer patients.
