Stay retired and enjoy it. Continue to work with the rescue mission(s). Take on another hobby, anything but a JOB. I am dead serious when I say that I am certain there are many charities and/or non-profits that would greatly appreciate the KSA's (knowledge, skills, and abilities for you non HR types) that you could bring to the group or organization. It would be a symbiotic relationship. You have the fulfillment of producing while not 'taking a job from someone who really needs it', and most likely your work will directly affect those that need the most help. (Hopefully anyway).

I know you are a charitable person and do some volunteer work. I make this suggestion because I have been associated with a couple of non-profits in the past. I can assure you that someone with skills that doesn't have to be paid is a treasured asset. More so than in kind cash donations even. Cash is spent and gone. Your KSA's will keep on giving.

There was time when if someone of your caliber walked in said I want to volunteer a few hours a week, as quick as I got through jumping with joy I would have asked, Why only a few? :<)
