Daily writing prompt
How do you balance work and home life?
I’m retired, but back when I was employed, I had a hard time finding a sense of balance. Furthermore, I was as married to my career as I was my ex-wife. This time around, I try to make sure that I am ‘present’ in my marriage, not just physically taking up space.
I try to focus on the issues that arise in our marriage and home, and I attempt to make it a priority to not let the struggles of a bad day ruin our time together. Life is far too short to let a bad day ruin a good thing.
Careers may come and go, but true love is once in a lifetime.

I am a good ole country boy residing in North Mississippi. I love to read, fish, hunt, hike and go to garage sales. Flea markets are a passion of mine. I read anything, but some of my favorites are: Dean Koontz, Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, T.S. Eliot, Shakespeare, and I possess a fondness for the writings of William Faulkner and Mark Twain. If I am forced to choose, I prefer baseball to football. I enjoy Alabama football (Roll Tide)! My baseball teams include: The Colorado Rockies and Boston Red Sox.
I am divorced, the father of two daughters and live by myself with Chunk and Roscoe (my dogs).
