2 job syndrome

I think that I'm suffering from 2 job syndrome. It's fortunately not contagious, unless gas prices keep going up. What are the primary symptoms you ask?....let me share.
1. You must have at least 2 jobs. They can be paid or unpaid...as being a mom counts as a full-time job, from what I hear.
2. After approximately 1 month of said syndrome, you become accutely aware of the preciousness of time. Ever evening off from my 2nd job (which means...I have only 2 nights off a week)...is like a giant vacation!!! I am so ecstatic! I want to get pizza and watch movies, or go on that close to home hike, I realize how much can actually be accomplished in 2 hours!!! I love it!!
3. After this Precious-time epiphany settles down, you must then realize the beauty of what your life looks like without needing the 2nd job.

Cure? Balanced checkbook, realistic budget and imagination. Possibly a better paying 1st job, but if that's not an option, the other ideas will help a lot.
** Big important part of the cure: Friends that support and encourage you in your endeavors!! *** I am blessed with all of these...so......we'll see what happens.

I am inspired by my friends' blogs to actually try and have more adventure in life...even if by means of regular everyday activities. Seeing life with a fresh perspective is wonderful!!! Thank yous to the Verdery's, Griggs et al.!!!
