Will Be Scarce For A Bit...

I feel real fortunate compared to where some of you guys and some of my friends are at. We have lived paycheck to paycheck most of our married life (40 years), but this year adding social security to my retirement and my wife's SS disability we finally have money leftover at the end of the month. We were used to getting paid monthly anyway so there was no adjustment to retirement, either. I'm working a little as well, but now with my gallbladder surgery I'll be off at least two weeks. We had nothing extra set aside for retirement, either. And, I had to retire at 58 to take care of my wife. I am, however, well suited for retirement. There's more fun to be had.
