How do you lovelies out there manage not to get too over-stressed from work? I know I have.

I just yearn for 5PM like everyone else. whee

Kidding, kidding. I just try to (mentally) leave my work at work and focus on myself and what I like to do when not at the daily grind. At lot of people stress about their day at work once they leave and it ends up burning them out. As soon as five rolls around I wash my hands of it and leave it all for tomorrow.

WELL I had a very stressful job for 8.5 years. It was a little crazy and I sometimes cried.. sometimes took on more than I could do and sometimes I just went bat-s**t crazy.

I, however, just got a new job and it is the best heart

about 20% of the stress level of my other job - a job should not be a place you DREAD going .. so if you do .. then it is time to start looking elsewhere

I do stress-relief activities. For me, that's baking. (Pounding on bread dough is wonderfully cathartic.) Sometimes I do some light, almost-yoga. Walking my dogs always helps. Once in a while I'll just sit in my car and scream until I'm hoarse. (I live in the country, so oftentimes there's no one around and so I can't bother anyone doing this.)

Like Melena Rai said, it helps if you like your job. I don't, but I'm actively looking for something, anything, that'll pay the bills and provide me with an enjoyable, interesting challenge.

Not be over-stressed? I don't know what that means... I'm a nurse! rofl

Kidding. When I leave work, I leave work. Eat something yummy for dinner, have a glass of wine (if needed), and then sleep. Lots of sleep.

And some quality snuggle time with the dogs and the hubby.
