Not necessarily a crisis of any kind. Maybe it's just time for a change. Change can be good.
ML crisis is when you move to a quiet,little KY town to retire. Everything starts breaking.
My midlife crisis occurred long before I moved to a quiet little Kentucky town. I think I moved to the country because I looked around at what was going on in the city and my spidey senses kicked in.
They were right.

This is a midlife crisis.
What you are describing is an awakening.
No, that's a mid-WIFE crisis. You've been dumped by one and haven't yet found another. This fills in the gap.

Funny. That would be my #1 destination if I had my way. I've loved the Black Hills for 30 years.
They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Some here get it. I could probably buy anything I want. Pretty much 0 debt and 780+ credit. The mortgage will be paid off this year and the vacation home has been paid off for years. I spent my 20s, 30s and 40s raising a family and trying to build a carrier. Now the kids have their own life and the job gets older by the day. It's not about things. It's about missing out on experiences. Someone once said we'll run out of health before we run out of money. I guess that's where my heads at this week.
And as good as JSTUART's idea looks, I'd buy the Vet before I bought that. The Vet would be cheaper!
Fair to say that more than a few here understand exactly what you’re saying. More than a few do ‘get it.’
You’ve worked for it, planned it well and things came to fruition. Now go forth and enjoy it. Ain’t but so much of life left to live.
