Stopping to smell the roses...

It was a gorgeous day on Friday and my work schedule was such that I could take the kids to the zoo.

Was there stuff to be done? Of course, but I really try to balance Money vs. Flexibility and remember the saying, "on your death bed, will you say, 'I wish I had spent more time at the office.'"

It's not easy to step back and say, "I am going to do something memorable today." The pressures of daily life get to me, like everyone else.

But, sometimes, you just have to do it...and put yourself at that point many years down the road, remembering the moment where you played hooky from work and went to the zoo....with your kids.
