Me too and I have been retired 20 years already. I have a chest full of stents but they are holding up great. I never planned or imagined I would live to 82 yet here I am. I have diabetes but keep it under control with Keto well dirty kept anyway. Steak and hamburger got way out of the three meal a day price range that kept requires. Carbs are cheap fat and protein not so much. Well fat can be reasonable if that is all you get.
We begin to lose words and names pretty quick so I have been depending on my wife but she is getting old too so we depend on internet searches to help us out. Amazon plays a big part in our life since we live a 20 minute drive from nearest town. Have to replace HVAC second time since we have lived here, hope this is the last one for 20 years or so.(Being optimistic aren't I)
Good luck on your retirement and plan and do what is best for you, the rest of the cr@p going on around us is just noise, learn to tune it out. Don't watch news, be selective even here and don't let all the things you can't control get to you, let the kids worry about it, they created this mess.
Three ischemic strokes have been whittling away at my ability to speak sentences and find the right words to say. What amazes me is that I can type them out like I am now just fine. I don't understand that but hey, it is what it is.

Thanks. I'm learning to tune a lot of things out. Kids. News. GF. Family. The more I tune out the happier I seem to be! The only one I really seem to care about anymore is the dog and hey, it's not even my dog, it's the neighbors and I'm just dogsitting!
At least I still have my sense of humor. Hopefully that gets me through to the next life and then me 'n Jesus are likely going to have a long, long chat. That is as soon as I'm done crying at his feet for 10,000 years.
