      Speaking of the future, if you didn't take time with the kiddo you'll be wishing you had. The cars & community will be here in 5yrs, but your baby will be heading to preschool. Don't miss out!

    MrsManchu and I took 12 years to bring the first grommet into the world. It was the best experience. Then the second grommet came into the world and he had some challenges. He radically changed our world. The hardships we’ve been through with him, still wouldn’t change it. He is bloody funny.
    Being a parent is such a great thing to be. Jimmy is going bring you and Zoe a lot of laughs. He’ll have lots of funny cheeky mates. And I’ll still be watching when he starts building his own car on Skid Factory just like Al’s grommet did. It’s the best ride Woody and Zoe. The best. Congratulations.

    When we had our first girl, I tried to keep up work as usual. Long days 6 days a week, hour to and from work.
    I lasted 9 months before I left the job and was diagnosed with depression.
    I'm encoraged that you're trying to find that balance from the beginning.
    I had an older mate say to me "good on you for quitting, when my girls were young I'd work huge hours, get home when they were in bed just so we could afford the big holidays twice a year. They don't remember those holidays. They remember I was never home to tuck them in"

    when i was in school we had a writer come tell about his job of a professional freelance writer and he struggled to balance family and work time. and what he eventually did is he set himself strict working hours. he would write stories and anwser E-mails from 8am to 5 pm from monday thru friday and weekends were off time.

      Boundaries are important. I know a guy that lives in his shop and has a separate space to relax with a home atmosphere and a small garden in the back. It is tough to do in the middle of a city but he still manages to separate work and his personal time. Family and relationships are very important to maintain, it is something that I neglected for making money in my 20s and look back and realize what I should have done. Now I spend as much time as possible with my loved ones and there's no amount of money I would trade it for.

    Totally understand mate. A few years ago I was getting into a state like this with my mates, we started having families and work we'd catch up once or twice a year if we're lucky. So 6 years ago we decided 1st Friday every month we catch up for dinner. Standing invitation for the guys to catch up. And we're still catching up monthly. If you don't make the date/time it just gets put off and life happens. Good luck with the bub, that's so amazing!!
