I've been doing them for couple years parallel to university, been recommending them to friends, but yeah two weeks is my "this is too much for me" time too.
The problems just start getting really involved really fast. I always enjoy them at first, but there’s a reason most people stop by day 10
The santa hat is always the most important part!
I am very excited to get it back out
