Managing parenting and business

[Robbo]

Woodspan I feel for you! I am in the same boat. I`m 40 with two kids one going to kindergarten in the fall, a day sleeping, night shift working wife and a house to take care of inside and out. I`ve been doing this a good 7 years since before my kids were born. Over the years my time has been eaten into severely. For the longest time I just made up by working at night and sacrificing my sleep until I ended up in the hospital with my heart freaking out after years of deprivation. So keep an eye on your sleep. It is an important part of the equation too. The past year has had my work time as limited as it has ever been and on autopilot for a good part of it also due to some other responsibilities I had to deal with. I`m hoping with fall comes a new strategy for me to get more time in working and things smooth out a bit. My big thing became actually being able to work on my stuff after "working" on everything else all the time. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy and I was feeling pretty darn dull for a while but finally coming out of my funk and getting my head back to normal. Good luck and hopefully we can cull some fresh strategies to allow our biz to flourish!
