Last year and especially near the end of the year I was at about 80 hours a week. I was exhausted a lot of the time. 44 hours at my regular job and around 40 hours at my online job.
That's six days a week from 7am to midnight with breaks in between.
This year is gonna be a little different come May I'm gonna cut back.
It's not very nice of me to say, "I'm glad I'm not the only one," because I wouldn't wish my grueling schedule on anyone. It's just that I can say that I I know intimately how you feel. Life's been brutal since August. This year, I won't have much of a respite, because the current season (although down from 80 to 60) is scheduled to last until March or April.
I hesitate to bring up the dreaded V word (vaccines), but I'm considering them for the next work cycle, since the vulnerability of an over-fatigued body cannot be denied. I don't have that much control over how much I can cut back, since I have an unusual level of skill and reputation for my industry (both a blessing and a curse, obviously), and I am only somewhat/sometimes a free-lancer. I also work for companies; they control me more.
