But that's the beauty of pursuing financial independence, eventually you'll get to claim every hour for yourself and your family instead of having to devote that time to work. I made 2 purchases this past week that will help me along my own path and hopefully I'll get posts up about them early next week.

This past week was very busy for me. It started off with a quick call out on Monday to head back to work. I was hoping to be home at least until Tuesday and maybe until Wednesday, but they got things done at the rig much faster than I expected. I...

- 1,000 pushups
- 1,000 squats

- 185 pushups
- 165 squats
- 60 burpees
- 3 minutes of planks
