Money sure helps to make life nicer, but it isn't the be-all-and-end-all.

I had to delay our family vacation by one day because I needed to complete the tax return for a 501c3 org that was due while we were away, and for various reasons is became impossible to do on the scheduled day. I did feel cheated. We all did -the kids were packed and playing legos until it was time to go ..and ended up being sent to bed.... But it needed to be done and for a few minutes, i though fuck! I'm not even being paid for this.... and then i thought.... if i was, the "how much" would be something else to worry about!
