Bring on a smaller population, robot laborers, and guaranteed incomes - we can handle it!

This is a really smart, insightful post.DH and me think back of bright office lights, loads of e-mails, deadlines, altering our personalities to fit the corporate culture. DH situation was more stressful than mine, but we look back and think how our carefree college days were hijacked when we entered the work world some 30 years ago. We were molded into something that seems alien now.
We've gotten our younger selves back in a way. We laugh and discuss. Whatever activity we enjoy, we do. It can be a long walk one day, volunteering, swimming at the Y, binge watching TV, planning vacations. It's not always together, we have our own interests.
Get to know your young self again. Open those doors that were slammed shut when you left the carefree existence of pre work. Redefine quality time. We used to "hurry up" and do something fun before Monday hit. Now, everyday is the weekend. Enjoy.
We belong to several clubs, have a lot of hobbies, and especially enjoy live music, live theater and hiking. Between those activities and every day activities like housework, paperwork, yard work and being involved with friends and family we stay pretty booked.
I don't have a blog.
