| A clock filled the falling silence, ticking like a metronome, keeping the beat of the daily grind. |
| The snow-topped, ice clad giants offer refuge from the daily grind in the form of miles of skiable slopes and long descents. |
| But underneath all the excitement lurk the mundane pressures of the daily grind. |
| Simple, relaxing moments like this make the daily grind of being a student a little more bearable. |
| The daily grind of life, a demanding family, death of a young, pretty niece due to cancer and no steady job has not diminished his zest for life. |
| In part it is because it so successfully juggles fantasy and reality, wish-fulfilment and the daily grind of life. |
