It’s a construction company. Started a year ago, finally starting to get into the black. But I’m working 7 days a week now and constantly am thinking about it or on the phone or at work and my wife is starting to get irritated with me for it.

Then you're doing better than most of us! I was worried I was to preachy lol.

Oh also, never underestimate the value of little things on the way home. Been friction at home? Spend $5 on some bath salts. If you guys are on the same page with the big stuff, the little stuff goes a long way. Shit saves marriages and heart attacks lol

That’s actually a great idea. My wife loves it when I bring flowers and shit home.

Its a cheat code. It doesn't fix things but it helps everyone put the guns down and remember they're on the same side. Mix in when things are also good and it's aces. Just never forget it only works as long as you both do the other work.
