Wonderful. Enjoy your retirement. Sounds like you have all good plans in place.

Good for you.  Enjoy retirement because as others have said life is too short.  I had 6 nights in the hospital two weeks ago with my second heart attack.  Plenty of time to think.  After this winter, I'm retiring also full time now.  I work part time for a foot doc right now 4 days a week and the stress of doing everything in that office by myself is killing me slowly.  It's just not worth risking your health. I want to enjoy retirement while I'm still standing so next summer, I will be a permanent retired person.  Amen!!!

Youare risking yours by keeping on working. Why wait until summer if it is slowly killing you? I wish you the best though and hope your health improves;

Something is very strange with this whole story.

You just don't back to a job after vacation and tell them you're retiring.

Why not?

And why not?   After 3 weeks it might be a perfect time to realize you're tired of working.

There is a lot of planning that goes into retirement.....for one, meeting with HR......going to SS......paperwork, etc.

I tried to respond to your post and I had a long explanation why I was waiting until next winter, but unfortunately the new boards just didn't post my explanation.  I don't want to go through typing what I typed again, but it doesn't matter really why I'm waiting until the end of this winter or not, I am retiring anyway.  Whether I retire now or wait until the end of the winter really is my choice and I'm not trying to be snarky in the least.  It's just my choice.  I thank you for wishing me well.  It's much appreciated.

LOL, that's all irrelevant to 'thinking about retiring Monday"  Giving notice is just the first step.
