I could do it drunk or hungover or half asleep.

I'd piggy back what zippy mentioned, there are nicer lower intensity construction gigs out there. When I tried the electrician thing years ago I couldn't do the pace. We know you've got a serious gift for photography, that may be what you need to do. I'd talk to the Mrs. You may get relief if you put a clock on it. Say you give yourself 3 more months on the house and thats it no more but finish work here and there. You need to figure out what you can do that allows you to be present in your work rather than lost in it. Timber framing gives me that buzz but I get it in the classroom in a different way. good luck bro, I've been there.
