I try to just do stuff I enjoy. I'm a football guy so Sunday is a great day for me this time of year. If I'm not doing that though, I'm spending time with my wife and daughter or tinkering with things that interest me like emulation.

Overall I make it my day and try not to worry about what is happening tomorrow. I will say the thing that really puts it into perspective for me is that I left a job earlier in the year that was unhealthy. I was working overnights and weekends. Sometimes I was only home 8 hours before I had to go back. I decided it was controlling too much of my life and I moved back to a regular Mon-Fri job. I'm so happy to have a regular schedule again and weekends to myself. I do my best to appreciate the time I have now.
