I'm right with you on that one. Life seems to be one long treadmill where you look forward to the next pleasurable thing on the horizon. That gets here, you enjoy it,  and it's over. Back on the treadmill again. I whole heartedly agree with the 10 hour work day and the three day weekend. My weekends seems to be filled with all of the chores,errands and responsibilities that I couldn't take care of during the week. I want TIME. I know all of the things I enjoy doing. I know the friends I enjoy hanging out with. I just can't get enough precious time to dedicate to them. Having chosen to be a single parent and raise my daughter on my own, a big chunk of my life has been even more laden with responsibilities. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't go back and change that experience for the world, but I'm looking at age 51 in a couple of weeks and I want much more of that precious commodity, time, in the worst way. I wish I could have stored some of it away to use now. Heck, just being able to post more often on the board would be nice. Having a spare hour or two to watch all of the small indpendent films recommended here.  Man, the list goes on and on of all the things I'd like to do. Sadly, the list of all the things I HAVE to do remains the same.

But, with all of that being said, I've got it better than a lot of people. I don't want to lose sight of all the good things that are present in my life. Okay....I still want less work and more time!
