Daniel on Recreation and Leisure

[MUSIC PLAYING] I love on my Sundays, especially during the NFL, just sit down on the couch and watch football. I work hard during the week. I like to just lay down, and watch football, and enjoy it. I like to watch the NBA. When it's not-- when the NFL season is not around, I like to watch the NBA. I like to do bowling. I love to bowl. So that's some of the hobbies I love to do. My wife keeps me busy socially. So with her being around her, we do a lot of hobbies. It's a grind every day. People don't realize. It's a grind. It's a grind to get up in the morning to be on time. It's a grind to have the self-control and the discipline. It's a grind to be able to try to learn how to advocate each and every day, and have a daily schedule, and be organized. That's what people don't realize. It's a struggle. And it's then a struggle to, as a married man, to find that balance of work and fun, but also be active with my wife and continue to pursue her at the same time.
