I try to live a balanced life, making sure to take care of the honey-do list in a timely fashion, spending quality time with her, watching TV shows with her that she likes but I don't really care for, etc. I limit my poker time to four to six hours and day, and sometimes play after she goes to bed if I'm not tired. We're retired which helps, but I'm also president of a radio control flying club which I must also give priority time to. That's how I keep my life balanced and don't fall into the poker abyss. Lately, she's gotten into the habit of asking me how my poker day went. I like that. It shows she cares about the things I'm interested in especially when I know she's not. Just remember--happy wife, tolerable life. [/QUOTE]
