To the original poster. Eat, sleep, dream, study flying. When wife or partner etc., goes to bed, sit in the armchhair, practise check lists, fly imaginary circuits, emergencies etc. Totally absorb yourself into this different dimension. It sure makes car driving very ordinary. I remember once doing a radar approach into Luton in solid cloud with an instructor [yes, in a 172... you could do that in those days!] and an hour later, was buying potatoes in High Wycombe market. Two completely different worlds in an hour. ENJOY!!!.
I always wonder if the days I look up at a prop in the sky and think "I can't believe I do that" will stop. Or even when I fly a 737, will I still look up and be amazed. I really hope so.
