Back in 2000 when the dot com boom went bust, I found myself on the curb with thousands of other Network Engineers. I was out of an "official" job for 2 years. One of the things that struck me right off was - how the hell did I have time to go to work every day when there was so much to take care of around the house?

So - yeah. Enjoy the gift. It may not seem like one if you're struggling to make ends meet, but it is.
