Should I look for work or not in IT?

You won't find "work" in "IT" - it would need at least four letters rather than 2.

Similarly, they won't find "not".

Why not? The canonical training course is here:

Depends. Is it late at night where you are and are you feeling sleepy?

My initial reaction as well…😂

If your tires are old, yes. It's for your safety.
|
|
|
|
|
If you have too much energy from the caffeine you had from being tired... yes.
|
|
|
|
|
always retire if you can afford it!

Re-tire may depend on tread. See your local laws what is ideal depth and take decision accordingly.

If you (a) can afford it, and (b) have plans that will keep you busy in your retirement - why not?
The worst thing you could do in retirement is to sit at home and vegetate.

I expect I will work until I fall dead over my keyboard. One can only sleeo so many hours in a day, and TV is wasteland these days.

They are pushing a "new"* TV series quite hard at the moment, called Treadstone. I'd never heard of it so I Googled to see if I would be interested.
And below the first entry - Wiki describing it - was a section titled "People also ask:"
This has three entries:
Why was Treadstone Cancelled?
Why was Treadstone so bad?
Is Treadstone worth watching? Ah. These are clearly the questions I should have asked. The answers were helpful as well...
... ratings had declined to just 371,000 live viewers by the season finale ...
... the poor editing, poor script, and the one-dimensional acting. The disjointed sequences are hard to follow, maybe because of the poor directing or maybe because of the lack of character development.
... nothing about it really justifies it's existence. Thanks Google! I'll give that one a miss. 
* I.e. new to them.

Give anything "new" a few years to settle before choosing to watch it.

Counter argument: "The Expanse".
Worth watching from day one.

I expect it's not something I would enjoy.

Give it a try - you might change your mind. Or read the books first to get the idea.
