With all the talk of depression in the other thread...

I did some calculations.

I have been out of the house a total of 9 hours in the last 30 days.

I have been online and active ( even eating dinner or watching a movie with laptop open and answering Icq messages) at least 18 hrs a day (I don't sleep much)

Thats not healthy...

Am I the only one like this?

Nope....those numbers are about right for me, too....except my online time is about 10-12 hours a day due to tending the kids/house etc. But, that still doesn't mean I get 'out'.

My husband pushes me to get out and will drag me around with him to do errands....he's my saving grace.

I've made a deal with one of my friends that we go out faithfully once a month. A movie, dinner, bingo, bowling...hell, I don't give a shit....just OUT.

We really do have to find a balance between work and 'real' life...it's essential if we are to enjoy all the money we're making! :P

Trading in your health and sanity for money isn't worth it.....
