I'm almost 40 years old and decided to go back to school this year. I'm a little over 6 months into this. I'm doing an online program but the only time I have to really focus on it is after the kids are in bed at night (So I get started around 8:30 - 9:00 each night and wind up working to well after midnight most nights). I'm completely exhausted. Between working a more than full time job, being a parent to two children (Ages 10 and 3), and trying to be a halfway decent husband I feel like I'm burning the candle at both ends quickly and I'm pretty certain I'm being a terribly inattentive husband.
Is this just a grin and bear it thing for the next year or so or for any of you who have done so, or do you have any advice for trying to balance this all out much easier?
