 @3967703f NO ONE does. We have a family friend who is 103, and her longevity is a testament to the caregiving and attention to her needs primarily by one of her four daughters. And it’s fallen to her due to proximity. On the one hand, yes it’s an honor and the right thing to do. On the other, it can be all-consuming. (unintentional preaching to the choir) 
 @066263a7 Yep. That's it in a nutshell. I'm happy to do it, but I imagined these years of my life being very different. I thought I'd be living abroad. 
 @3967703f Yeah ... I see my dreams of pulling a Baldwin and moving to France setting sail without me. 
 @066263a7 😃 I've been doing a a back and forth Robeson for about 40 years. I was trying to pull it down for half the year every year. But, yeah, not going to work right now. 
 @3967703f Half a year?! That’s FANTASTIC. I’d settle for that any day ... uh ... year. 
 @066263a7 Working from home creates the opportunity. But, not right now.
