I do stop and smell the flowers. I make time for my wife, family and friends and then I work. Make sure you keep your priorities a priority, and life will be full of many wonderful things.
Yeah I miss having all of that extra time available to do stuff. One thing I really miss from my job I had while in school is getting out of work at 1 or 2pm because I was in there at 6am. Sucked getting up but man having the whole afternoon to do stuff was so nice to have.

Working weekends was crap but having days off during the week when no one else did was pretty nice as well. Mostly because if I went out fishing there was maybe 2 other people fishing where as on the weekend it's a zoo

My brother is 5.5 years younger than I am, and 8 younger than my sister. My parents will be the old parents when his time comes around.

I was a commercial fisherman for 20 years (mainly crabbing). I may have logged a few hours on the water.

All I got from that is that you used to have crabs.

Nice! We hit the bay during the fall for the striped bass that run up during that time. Also have done a little bit of crabbing while at the beach but lately it's been fairly slim pickings so we don't really bother much lately
