It does. That's why I've fought so hard to get out of the normal grind that most of us do and do something I love to do. Even if I have to live leaner to do it. One of the biggest things I criticize about society these days is how we wish away 5 days a week to hurry up and get to the other 2. I'd prefer a life where a Monday is just as great as a Saturday. I'm pretty much there.
I do not see grandkids in the foreseeable future, but one never knows, after all, she came along when I was 29, totally unexpected.
