Just updating this thread to say it is a done deal. Friday was my last day - left the building as an employee for the last time about 10:15 Friday morning. They had a dinner for me Thursday night which was very nice. DW had balloons in the driveway and a fresh-baked apple pie in the kitchen when I got home. What could be better than that!
Sounds perfect, just add a glass of skim milk and you're all set. Good luck!
