My Sunday's are sacrosanct for that reason. They're days to relax, catchup with friends and Sunday dinner is family time. It's a time out day even if I have to bust a gut on Saturdays to get the chores done so that Sunday is free.. I work with people who are facing retirement . . .some are terrified that they won't have anything to do when their work life stops . . that strikes me as rather sad as if their only validation is to work . . .the biggest worriers? The wealthy clients who think they don't have enough money to retire! The more you have, the more you need. Needless to say, I don't need much! . I couldn’t agree more.

A neighbor of ours, 66, died last week. He was still working almost full time. Yes, I know too many people who die before they get to that point. A neighbor of ours, 66, died last week.

They will then relax and have fun. I've seen far, far too many never get to see that magical date because, hello!, there are no guarantees on any of it. Like you say the time is now. I am so glad you had that time. My mother's anniversary is this month too and I am so glad I quit the job and took the little girls with the blessing of their understanding father and went back to Ireland to spend some months with her before she passed....
