💦 7 YEARS OLD. 1 BIG REALIZATION. 👀
Happy Thirsty Thursday! I'm off today, which means absolutely NO relaxing! 😂 My big guy just turned 7, and Saturday's birthday party isn't going to prepare itself! 🎉 No matter how old my kids get, they'll ALWAYS be my babies. ❤️ I give them everything I've got, even

7 YEARS OLD TODAY… AND I'M STILL ASKING PERMISSION TO BE DAD.
🐪 Happy Hump Day! Life has been LIFE-ING today! 😂 Stayed up late making signs and blowing up balloons because our firstborn, Ty, turned the BIG 7! 🎈❤️ Mommy and Daddy love you to the moon and back, bud! Looking at these pictures, I swear I blinked and 7 years disappeared. 🥹 Our youngest ha

🇺🇸 1 VOTE. 1 PAYCHECK. WHO CONTROLS YOUR TIME?
🌮 Happy Taco Tuesday! Voting day is FINALLY here! I know my fellow postal workers are tired of seeing political mail. Hell, we've delivered enough to run for office ourselves! lol This morning, my boys came with me to vote. I want them growing up knowing their voices matter. Got me thi

🧱 YOU’RE MAKING A LIVING. BUT MISSING A LIFE.
FOUNDATION MONDAY First Monday of November. Whatever goal you’ve been talking about, there’s one block that has to come next: ACTION. You can plan it. Write it down. Pray about it. Eventually, you have to move. Because as a dad, I’ve realized something… My kids don’t know my sa

🔥 1 PAYCHECK. ONE QUESTION: WHEN DID “PLAYING IT SAFE” BECOME THE RISK?
Happy Sunday Funday! ☀️ First day of November and today was supposed to be “get the house together” day… Somehow we ended up outside blowing leaves at the kids instead. 😂 So yeah, we're making great progress lol. 3 more days until our 6yr old turns 7 and 6 days until his party. Gonna b

🔥 I’M PROVIDING FOR MY KIDS… BUT MISSING THEIR CHILDHOOD. 💔
Happy Halloween 🎃 & Unchained Saturday. I missed my son’s first basketball game this morning. Tonight, Daddy’s at work while my kids trick-or-treat. My babies did stop by in their costumes before heading out ❤️… and watching them leave without me hurt. That’s the part of providing nobody

WHEN DID TWO INCOMES STOP BEING ENOUGH?
🎃 THE SCARIEST NUMBER THIS HALLOWEEN: 1 Happy Freedom Flex Friday & Halloween Eve everyone! 👻 Think about this… 1 paycheck = risky 2 paychecks = still barely enough for a lot of families 3rd stream = a little more breathing room Even $1K extra a month is $12K a year. That’s why

🚨 #2 — MY UNIBROW ISN’T MY BIGGEST FLAW 😂
Happy Thirsty Thursday y'all! We all got something 😂 Mine is this damn unibrow. If I don't stay on top of it, these eyebrows start trying to reconnect 😂 But it actually got me thinking... For the longest time my answer to needing more money was just work more. 40+ hours at my ca

HOW MUCH FAMILY TIME DOES AN EXTRA $1K COST?
🐪 HAPPY HUMP DAY! I’m definitely more rested today than yesterday lol And I know me and my fellow postal workers will be happy when political season is over. Yesterday I talked about being drained but still saving what energy I had left for my kids. It got me thinking about other working pare

🔥 MY JOB GETS THE BEST OF ME. MY KIDS GET WHAT’S LEFT.
🌮 Taco Tuesday thought: I’m mentally and physically drained. Burned out. Running on autopilot. Every morning my youngest and I race to the daycare door. Then I come home and throw the football with my oldest until his bus comes. Today, they got the little energy I had left…because I still

🔥 I STOPPED LOOKING FOR ANOTHER JOB.
Late post… because this week already started off with a BANG. 😂💥 Happy Foundation Monday! 26 days into October… what have YOU accomplished? Last year I was burned out, mentally checked out, and looking for another job. I applied for one and got told I was OVERQUALIFIED. Cool compliment.

⛓️ 14 HOURS. AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHY I NEED OPTIONS. 🔓
⛓️ 14 HOURS. That’s how long I was at work today. First post ALL DAY… that should tell you how my Saturday went. 😂 Work over 12? Either don’t get paid for the extra time or risk discipline for clocking out over 12. Leave without everything done? Risk discipline for that too. 🤦🏾‍♂️ THIS

ALL I DID WAS CLOCK IN… 😳
🚨 30 DEGREES FROM BLOWING UP?! Happy Freedom Flex Friday! 🔴 Apparently I picked the right day to wear RED 😂 Found out our building’s boiler safety shutoff wasn’t working. Plumber tells me it was about 30 degrees away from potentially blowing up. Ummm… YEAH. 😳 All I did was show up fo

HE CHOSE THE DREAM OVER ANOTHER JOB
MOST PEOPLE WOULD'VE PICKED THE SAFE ROUTE. 👀 Bridger didn't. He moved across the country to chase competitive cheer because this isn't just some hobby to him. 🔥 But rent doesn't care about your dreams. Neither does training, travel, groceries or everyday life. 😂 So inst

CONSISTENCY LOOKS BORING… UNTIL THIS HAPPENS. 👀🔥
$68K. ONE WEEK. 👀 Camille just had herself a WEEK. 🔥 But the part that gets me isn't just the number. It's everything that happened BEFORE the number. Showing up when nothing exciting was happening. Learning. Staying consistent. Not quitting because results weren't instan

YOUR KID NEEDS YOU. DO YOU GO… OR ASK PERMISSION?
8 HOURS. That's what most of us give our jobs every day. Sometimes 10, 12+...all to provide for our families. My oldest was up most of the night coughing from his seasonal asthma. Luckily I was already off today and could take him to the doctor. But what if I wasn't? Now I'm

🚨 MY 3-YEAR-OLD HAS MORE OPTIONS THAN SOME GROWN FOLKS 😂💀
Happy Hump Day! 🐪 Going into work late today, so I figured I’d knock out the front yard first. If you drove past and saw my 3-year-old snow blowing the grass… MIND YA BUSINESS. Lol Lil dude had OPTIONS this morning: Ride his bike. Play with his toys. Watch Dad work. Help Dad. T

WORK MORE. MAKE MORE. MISS MORE.
Happy Foundation Monday! 💪🏾 Hope everybody had a good weekend, but it's back to the grind. Hardworking parents… how many hours are you working just to afford your life? 40? 50? 60+? That's the part that started getting to me. Yeah, I can work more and make more… but that also

How far did you make it before I got you? 😂👀 Be honest… I KNOW number 5 took some of y’all out. 💀 If I got you, comment “OUT” 👇🏾 Then send this to another working adult and see if they survive all 7. 😂 #extraincome #WorkingAdults #MoreOptions #creatorsearchinsights #howtostar
