Great suggestions, and I have certainly been trying to increasingly fill my "off time" by improving myself. Some things I have implemented since taking on this role and working from home: completed my BSCS, weekly piano lessons, taking courses for certifications (Sec+, Net+, PMP). > But finding your job easy, not being tired at the end of the day, having time for kids... Yeah, that's certainly the crossroads that I am at. I'm at the age I feel like I need to make moves into areas that I want to be (infosec for me) while they're still available, or I'll lose them forever. But I also know I would love to have this job 10 years from now when (if) my kiddo is into competitive sports, etc. Then you add in the slew of other factors that could happen in a decade: reorganization, different supervisors, etc.
