I've been taking on a lot of recording and mixing sessions this year. In between these sessions I work on this magazine. That doesn't leave much room for the rest of my life. I'm lucky to have an awesome wife, and she thankfully has my back when I'm too busy to wash my own dishes, feed the cat or deal with laundry. But sometimes I feel the time just slipping away. Friends wait patiently for an opening in order to hang out. Finding a hole in my schedule to fix things around the house or return phone calls and emails seems impossible.
