Well, done is done. I'm officially retired. I've met with the IPERS and the US SS people, and know what and when I'll be earning. I know the horrendous figure for next year's budget billing for LP, the cobra payment beginning in September to stay affiliated with the school's insurance, and am wondering what other "hidden" costs I haven't thought of in advance...
I added the two figures together and compared them with my take home in May, the last check stub I have, and am wondering if I made a really bad dyslexic math error... I don't know how to react. I will be getting paid twice a month, about two weeks apart, for the first time in 32 years. That, in itself, is a luxury.
