Corrected with continuous form, it would be "I am too old; I am retiring."

The sentence should be: "I am too old; I am getting retired." In this case, it is more common to use the simple present form "I am getting retired" to indicate an action that is currently happening. The continuous form "I am getting retiring" may not be grammatically incorrect but it sounds awkward and less common in this context.
