Congrats! Retirement is the best! Two years ago I took a week's vacation, contacted Obamacare, signed up, went to Social Security, signed up. When I went back to work, I gave my two weeks notice. They were not happy, but I figure, if they were going to let me go, I wouldn't get any notice. Starting next month, I'm starting back at the same job 8 hours a week just for some extra money. Enjoy your retirement!

@hoosieroriginal, you post was spot on. I am 65 and have let my supervisor know I have been looking into my pension amount and Social Security. Last Thursday I was in her office and she said, Dell have you made your decision yet, I need to know if you are leaving? She kept on badgering me and I replied maybe end of July this year. I then told her to not say anything to anyone else. She said, well we have to make plans to replace you. I said that is over 3½ months away. Very rarely do employees give 3½ months notice. She was visibly irritated with me. They can't even start interviews for my job position until the position is vacant. I know it was my error to answer her question but I was so surprised at her reply. She made it all about her and the office. I have worked there 21 years.
