Getting Older As I Type This

A couple weeks ago I got a mailing from the Social Security Administration updating me on my full retirement age (67) and what benefits I can anticipate receiving depending on the age I start taking them.

My initial reaction was, "Seven more years before I reach full retirement age?" 😩

And then I realized, "Wait.... I'm old enough that they are starting to prepare me for this stuff!" 😲

After a quick perusal of the mailing again today, I did the only sensible thing: I created my online login and then filed the paperwork away. I've still got time. 😊
