a little secret..........

Wining the lottery is not going to bring a stress free life.  You are only going to consume more and therefore you will have added, unnecessary material items, that you will then worry and stress about.

My job has it's stresses but the positives it brings me far outweigh any negatives.

If I were to win a lottery you would never even know it.  The only thing I would do is pay my debts and work for myself.

I have been in printing for over thirty years. I am not currently working but when i was it was very stressful. It didn't help with the kidney disease. My blood pressure would go through the roof sometimes. Allot of printing has a date on it. You have to get it done before the date or it is no good. I have worked many a all nighter. As you can imagine just sitting there for hours can be very boring.

i am a 51 year old male on dialysis for 3 years now. This is my second time. My brother donated a kidney to me about 13 years ago. I found this site on another site. I had to laugh when i saw what it was called. I hope to meet people from all over to talk about dialysis.

I work in the radio industry as an on-air personality and I can tell you when I go to Dialysis during vacation's my fluid level is considerably less, my blood pressure is better and I'm much more fun to be around.  I love my job but it does tend to lend itself to worsening my health.  I also don't always have the energy at the end of a long workday to workout which aggravates me to no end.

I know if I could retire and just hike and swim everyday I'd be much better off (and much happier) but it's just not possible.

If I won the lottery you would know it because I would tell the world where to step off and how long to stay there!  Hehehe
