You and I are close to the same age. I have to say that I would never go back to work, NEVER. Not under any circumstances.

Maybe you have more energy than I do. I wouldn't be surprised if you did.

I LOVE being retired. I play on DU and facebook. I take pictures. I write poetry, and read it in public. I try to get it published...

I travel.

I take naps...

Like that.

Do you really want to put yourself into the hands of an employer again?

Do you want to give up your precious freedom?

I sure don't.

YMMV.

Give it a lot of very careful thought......and I know you will.
