Nope have worked too hard and sacrificed too much to have 1/2 of it go poof because of complaints of working long hours, and not spending enough to keep up with the Jones'.

It's too late, I'm too set in my ways, too grouchy, too unwilling to change for anyone.

I like where I am in life just fine and sure do enjoy not having to answer to others. Might be labeled selfish but I don't see how building and preserving things for a niece and nephew which will hopefully continue to benefit them for their lives can be considered selfish.

I knew when I chose this life it would likely mean going it alone. I don't mind putting my self behind the needs of the farm.

Part of living free and my own terms I suppose. It's a dying concept and ideal in today's "all about me" society.
