Are you seriously arguing that the average peasant had the luxury to not work because they were feeling burnt out? Not that it matters too much, but a holiday

Not that it matters too much, but a holiday in the Middle Ages didn't mean the peasants didn't work, it just meant that they didn't eat meat. Otherwise it was work sun-up to sun-down 6 days a week for barely enough food to keep your family alive - that is provided there was not a harvest failure two years in a row.
