Coming to terms with a life outside of bloging

If you’ve been wondering what I’ve been up to that is so much more important to me than making money (and we all know you’ve been wondering), I’ve been up to my eyeballs in personal issues and angst.  There really isn’t anything else that would keep me away, after all.

This marks the first full week that my wife is deployed overseas.  The weeks leading up to, and the week after this event have kept me very occupied in the world of personal matters.  It’s a hard life that we live at times.  Separations make it harder.

So now I have to get myself back into the world of work.  At the same time, I’m a full time father, so I’ve had to juggle schedules to get myself planted back in front of my monitor, but hopefully I’ve got that settled now and can return to the task at hand.

I need the work, it keeps me sane.

And you can expect an awful lot of it from me over the next Fifteen months.  Aside from being a father, missing my wife terribly and running a house, it’s all I’ve got to keep me moving.  At the moment I consider it a dear friend that I plan to embrace.  Working means less time for feeling lonely or powerless.  At least until late at night.  Then it’s just me, a small dog and a picture of my wife on a  nightstand.

But that’s a tale for a different venue.
