So glad you are finding a productive rhythm again. It is especially nice you are able to build that time in for your son. That is what it is all about. I understand being in hte groove all too well, and would love to find mine again, but it just ain't there right now. Personally, I am still looking for mine after the holidays and my wife going in the hospital. Not sure there is any relief either because she goes back in a couple weeks.

It is a little more nuanced for me to separate work from personal time as I am semi-retired, but starting my own business working from home. However, what works for me is that my kids are grown and out of the house and the wife is very understanding and supportive.

BUt yeah, maintaining that balance is important.
