this thought pops into my head often...what happens to us (me and my husband) when we get to retirement? i do not mean about having the necessary savings. i mean living life. it is easy now to be wrapped up in the kids and easy to avoid dinners out, spontaneous trips, meals on the go. we need to plan with kids so that always includes planning for me. but eventually those reasons will not longer be at the front of our decisions. trips to china and italy will never happen, trips to the grand canyon and arizona spas and golf course will never happen, trips to place we can make a weekend like nyc and washington dc might happen with so much planning and paying for a full suite with a kitchen, spontaneous day trips will never happen.
this is just so sad. one organism who was designed to survive but is a single celled organism controls my life. i am a member of what some would say is the most intelligent species on earth - at least we are in the top 10. and my life is what it is because we are so blinded by are own stupidity we refuse to see parasites for what they are. and because of this my husband will probably in the end spend retirement without me. we might come home to the same house but the adventures will not be together.
missing birthday cake, and thanksgiving dinner and home made ravioli on new years compare to the sadness of this fact
