Yo Fred.......good to hear you are doing something for yourself! Not only because you deserve it...but because it's what I categorize as 'survival mode'.
You are a little younger than I....but trust me as you continue to get older you will gravitate more and more toward things (other than work) that are important in maintaining some balance in your life.
This coming from a bit of a workaholic who has finally seen the light!
As someone who works outside in the elements....coming home at mid-day for me, allows an opportunity for the body temp to reset. Then comes all the other things....
- Let furballs out...
- Eat
- Drink
- Change out tools and materials in truck
- Check email and any phone messages
- Relax and let body rest
- And yes.....watch a little TV! Rockford Files, The Big Valley, Gunsmoke, and Bonanza are some of the shows I have enjoyed while on break.....
Oh and add to the above......check in on PPOT and make sure I'm not missing anything important!!!
