I'm fricken Spent!

This last weekend sucked! The few things I have in my life take up all the time that I have. I'm going to school full time, working full time, playing with my 10 month old, and my wife and I have a business that we run full time. On top of homework, work, and the business, i am just running out of steam. I was really looking foward to takeing sunday off but then i got sick. I just want to relax but I cant! AARRGGHH!! I'm even in class right now at 6:10 at night!

Any one else have too much to do out there?

sometimes you have to take a break from class, that's what i did alot during the first few months of school while i was rowing. rowing would take up about 3hrs in the morning (from 5-7:30 or 8am) then i'd have to fit in another hour of erging (rowing machine) which would actually take about 1:30 or 1:45 with walking from the car half way across campus to the gym, changin and walking back. plus i had full time school, usually ending at 4 or 5:30, then i'd go home, it would take an hour because of traffic, have a quick snack and be in bed by 7:30. i had no time for anything, and saturdays we'd have an even longer practice because we had time, and i worked the rest of the day (12 hr shift from 9am-9pm) so i know how you feel. sometimes i'd just have to take an entire day of school (provided i didn't have any tests or labs) just to keep my sanity.

I have too little to do. Yet, I still can't get everything done (finals are going to suck to a degree previously unheard of today).

I havent slept since early monday morning... its pretty much of my own doing though so I can blame no one but me

Much respect to you man. Just keep on trucking.

My dad began his own business and didn't take a vacation until the 5th or 6th year in. He worked sick, floods, whatever. I'm talking 90-100+ hour weeks.

I've seen him go in with a major flu bug, running a 100-something degree fever.

Do what you need to do. Sometimes you just need that one day to sleep all day to be well rested. Keep on keepin' on. Best of luck.

How much longer do you have in school?

[BeZerK2112]

Thats the best part. I'm 2 credits away from senior and just switched my major to business managment. Most of thoes credits are transfers. Schools are funny that way. Wont accept the classes but they'll accept the credits. I've got about 2 years left here and then I'm considering my MBA after that.

My wife is doing the same thing but will be done next year. We started the business becuase we wanted better wages then we could make from any other job, and to be able to take our son to work. It's still in it's first few months so it hasn't paid us anything yet so I had to get a full time job. Luckely it pays it's own bills and business is picking up.

I've been working 80+ hours a week for a while now and trying to start my own business. It can get overwhelming but you just need to relax and think about the future and the pay off of all that work. You have a wife, a 10 month old, and a growing business, its not that bad! Relax a little.
