[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 331256, member: 324"] I think Reese and Vince made a movie about that. I think I nearly died laughing at it. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I agree. We have a couple of friends who own two restaurants, and they're not open on Sundays. It's not even a conversation. They simply believe Sundays are for family and rest. They don't shout it from the rooftops, they simply are not open. We admire that very much. Similarly, my parents both worked, my wife's parents both worked. My wife and I both work (because we like to live comfortably). We could survive, even with three kids, on one income, but we choose to both work because we enjoy what we do, and what it affords us. And yet we still take family vacations. We still go camping (not as much as we'd like, but we missed a couple trips this past summer for weddings and family gatherings, ironically..). Going to my brother's place next weekend, for a nice four-day mini-vacation. Looking forward to it greatly. If you'll notice, in the above comments, I only said "I" a couple of times. That might be key. Jaykay [/QUOTE]
