[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 57, will retire next year, and worried. 
I’ve always been very busy. I’d like to take more time to cook healthy meals with my daytime hours. 
I currently already teach a fitness class and travel a lot. We already have a condo in Florida in a 55 older community. 
I am a teacher so I know  I will miss children and precious co-workers. 
DH and I have always been very  young acting for our age and don’t fit in with many our age. That doesn’t mean we should keep working though. I don’t know what it means. 
Accepting advice. [/quote]

It sounds like maybe you aren’t ready to retire yet if you enjoy your work I, on the other hand, am so tired of work, but can’t afford to retire yet. [/quote]

I want the freedom to travel and it’s so hard to do  as a teacher. [/quote]

Also we’ve been empty nesters for 15 years. 
We see our kids often. No grandkids. Only plan to snowbird for three months. I’m not going to be breathing down their necks every weekend. [/quote]
