Turning 65

It's been a few months since I posted to this blog and now it's September, always an auspicious month for me - the beginning of Fall and the stretch leading up to the biggest holidays of the year. I thought I should write about what it's like to be full retirement age, but in fact - according to Social Security - I'm not. That won't happen until next September when I turn 66. And who knows, with the government looking for new ways to save money and balance the budget (without raising taxes?) maybe next year it will be moved to 68 or even 70.

Anyway, for those of you youngsters who want to know what it feels like, I can tell you that aside from a few more aches it's pretty much like it was when I was 64.
