not me. I started to priotize down time where I just don't do anything. I was trying to keep up with all that stuff and it was draining me. of course, working too much was a huge factor (even 8 extra hours in a week is 8 fewer hours for hobbies, plus the impact of the extra mental drain, there's like a time efficiency hit too)
I can keep up with work and like three other things nowadays while getting enough sleep and down time. I just rotate which things week to week. sometimes it's video games, woodworking, gardening, reading, other hobby stuff, home projects, etc. obviously there are weeks where I do more, but that's not the average. and the minimum is two. rec sports keep me engaged with people and getting out of the house regularly instead of "oh it's been rainy for four days and I haven't needed to buy anything so I haven't been outside much in the past 100 hours because I couldn't go for a bike ride"
oh and I don't have kids, just dogs.
