X is for Xactly When is this Challenge Over?

Don't get me wrong.  The A-Z Challenge has been an amazing test of my (and Roger's) patience, humor, and resolve.  And, It's been a great opportunity to meet many, many new and wonderful people.   But truth be told, I'm exhausted!  Those of you who have also gone on this ride know what I mean.


With two more days to go, I'm not about to say 'uncle'.  Therefore, in honor of X-Day, I'm throwing these suckers up against the wall.  Let's see what sticks....

Xanadues

Noun

1.    The money you earn and save in order to retire in the place of your dreams.
