My plan is to throw myself into my job and my kids.
Kids – GREAT IDEA. Become the Dad that YOU always wanted to be. This my friend will reap rewards for YEARS to come.
As for the job….
BALANCE
In life everything is a balance my friend. Even M’s are a balance.
Learn to balance everything in YOUR life.
Throwing yourself into work and not allowing YOU to experience a fun and healthy life is also not ideal – IMO. So just remember to take care of YOU. Try to carve out some time for YOU. With that let me ask you a few questions….
1) What do you enjoy doing 2) What dreams have you always wanted to live

I enjoy having close friends over with their children and firing up the grill and cooking 4 or 5 slabs of ribs and drinking beer while a big group of kids play football or baseball in the back yard while the parents hang out on the screened porch and relax. I also enjoy the beach. We are 3 hours from the Gulf of Mexico and we have always enjoyed spending time as a family at the beach. That is my favorite thing in the world to do. Go to the beach with my family.
I have always dreamed of having a boat. Nothing big, something we can take to the lake or the gulf and the kids can ski and tube. This is something that I stopped dreaming about over the past few years and it is now back on the front burner. I am working on a plan to buy a boat next spring. Its a goal and God knows I need goals in my life more than ever.
