Ok it finally came to me.
I have been feeling like I was forgetting something and it's been since the beginning of May and I couldn't think of what it was and as I said I was beginning to panic. That I left the stove on feeling. Thought I was just having retirement anxiety. Nope I forgot something.

Husband had a little retirement benefit from a previous employer that he couldn't get until 65 which I had completely forgotten about. I knew I was missing something but couldn't figure out what it was.

My old computer had crashed and I didn't have those files, my son came over this weekend took the old hard drives I had saved and found an old computer a friend had in a closet they would work in and retrieved my old files and moved them to a flash drive. Just in case going over my old plans would help me feel better. There it was a little bitty pension from 1980. It is not a lot of money just a little bit every month, but I new I was forgetting something and I just couldn't remember what it was.

Moral of the story if you don't like paper always back up to an external drive because down the road your memory might not be what it use to be.
