I spent about 75% of my day yesterday mowing, weedeating, winterizing things, pulling a plugged gas tank off my tractor, cutting out summer landscape, etc - you are right it can be a LOT.
But I know I would miss that sweat work - it just somehow fulfills me. For now anyway. I was not meant to be in an office all day.

I'm the same way. There are some days I enjoy doing the yard work and then there are days that I have other things I need to be doing, but stuck working in the yard. The next morning, while leaving for work and then returning home, I do enjoy the look of my yard that looks like it's been sculpted by lasers.
I'm starting to feel the same way about my office job. When I was younger, doing manual labor, I always wanted to be the guy dressed nice and sitting in the office. Now I want to be the guy up moving around and working with my hands. We're never satisfied.
