taking a break

I really hate doing the big TA DA thing but it's easier than lots of posts and PMs.

Many of you will know I'm burnt out recently - I've become irascible, bad tempered and personally involved here - more than once.

That's no good to anyone else here, and it's certainly no good to me.

It's not getting better, so I'm taking a time out for a while.

I'm not breaking down, or breaking up, or in trouble, or drinking, or anything else.
I'm fine.

I'm just tired, a bit sick, and I need a break - and a decent one.

I need to focus on me and my life for a while - regain some perspective.

I'll miss you all, but I'll be back.

take care, all of you
love
D

Dee,

You're a giver and givers get burnt out. I hope you will find some relaxation and fun. Get into some good music or whatever really makes you content and at peace. Restore your soul.

I will eagerly wait your return though and will miss you!

Your friend,
Kathleen

GRR! Just when I was beginning to like you Seriously though, you'll be sorely missed while you're gone. Thanks so much for bringing your personal edge to SR. Make the most of your break, enjoy, and refocus.

Sooner, rather than later!

I hope you are better at taking breaks from this place than I am!
I have noticed you were even grumpier than usual.

Seriously though, I understand and just hope you come back soon, this place won't be the same without you. You will be missed.
