Agreed. Retiring entirely might not be feasible yet. But if OP wants to keep working at something else for a while, perhaps burned out on teaching, then "double dipping" (collecting a pension while working a different job) very well might be. That assumes, of course, an appropriate job that pays well enough to make it work (and doesn't involve too much stress, drama, or dread about Sunday evenings) is available.
