Anyone still struggle with Work-Life-Balance-Induced Guilt?

I'm very lucky in that I actually like my job; I'm a bartender at a local brewery. My boss is very nice and accommodates schedules as well as she can, and is just a friendly and pleasant person to work with. Recently I've reduced my hours (school is starting) down to 35 hours a week and no availability on Sunday. My boss was complaining about how difficult it is to schedule on the weekends now and the difficultly of hiring; the touristy nature of our town leads to a very competitive service industry. I know I don't want to/can't work more hours, but I still feel guilty I can't step up to help her out a bit more. Anyone else ever get that feeling?
