Making time for the family...
How do you find time for the family with the high op-tempo? For the guys married with children. I'm married with 2 kids. Just adding the additional time to train up for selection added to my work schedule and I can see the time spent with the family dwindling. Just last night my daughter had a brain fart with her math homework and the wife was getting my 10 month old ready for bed and I was just walking in the door from work and after a quick bite to eat out the door again for some land nav and ruck march... then the brain fart. I stayed and took care of my daughters math issue and it cut into my training time. Anyway, that's an example of the microcosm of the macrocosm. It happens all the time. I think my wife is more excited than I am about me going to selection and she is all for it if I get selected. No problems with her supporting me there but the time is the issue. How do you and your spouses deal with it?
