If you'll do anything, I suggest you retrain into another field.
I'm almost 40... I worked in the field before the "always-connected" worker. We still had pagers and the wonderful but dated "telephone". I still got pages and phone calls at all hours, and I guarantee if I didn't respond, I would not have been getting a paycheck.
It's wasn't much different than now, except you are able to actually fix something without having to shut off the TV and haul your ass into work.
