When I went to law school I had to do it at night and work 40+ hours /wk. Although I was already D from my 1st marriage I felt that to keep my sannity I had to make time for me so I joined a pool league 1 night a week. It did not detract from my classes and gave me a much needed break from work as well as all the studying. And it gave me some social interaction as well which I believe kept me focused.
I really needed to hear that. I CAN do this! I CAN work 40 hours, go to school, and have time with my husband.
