> Now I want to go home and relax, work with my hands out in the yard/garden.

I find that stuff you've mentioned to be a great complement to working in the software field. Perhaps it's because we're exercising our creativity in new ways, where we wouldn't necessarily be able to do in a routine software job (there are only so many new challenges one faces day to day).



Gardening is very enjoyable as is working on my home. Something very gratifying about seeing your hard work in physical form versus virtual work.
