What do you mean by saying do I take a day off?! These ARE my coping mechanisms. But add to that cooking and the odd task around the house; the odd chat with a friend; some craft work and or writing; perhaps a bit of exercise and a day fills up so quickly :) trying to eat healthy and get enough sleep ... perhaps a weekend away here and there: as long as I feel like my code is improving over time and I am learning, I am happy :) how about you?
