Burning The Candle At Both Ends ...
For over twenty-five years I tried to coach middle school basketball in the afternoon, and officiate high school basketball at night.
I did it because I loved coaching, and I loved officiating, and because, frankly, my family needed the money as we were expecting our three kids to eventually want to go to college.
I don't know why it took me over twenty-five years to figure out, but doing both, and being a middle school science teacher, and raising a family, was burning me out. Something had to go, and it was the coaching, and honestly, I don't miss it.
