[quote=Anonymous]OP: the only thing I can add to what others have said is this: work on not giving a f**k about what other people think. Seriously. If it works for you, who cares what they think?

I have a crazy high-powered job, I have a great spouse, and my kids are thriving. I care deeply about my spouse, my kids and work. I do not care about having granite countertops or whatever the fancy thing is right now. I do not care if the towels in the bath are getting raggedy, or if the silverware does not match. I do not care if the kids' room should really be repainted. I do not care if the SAHM's hate me for not volunteering endless hours at my kids' school. . I do not care about whether I have a fancy handbag or fancy shoes. I do not care about driving a cool car and will drive my 2011 minivan until it drops dead

Some day, when the kids are in college or I have retired, maybe I will care about some of those things. For now: nope.

Not wasting a single unnecessary second on all that leaves me time to care about what actually matters to me![/quote]
