I cannot read the news for a while, need a break.

[uppityperson]

Keep up the good work all. It is time for a break. Peace and onward.

1. I Took A Leak Before, But I Didn't Announce It.

Maybe I should have LOL

Peace to you too though. We'll be here when you return.

14. Obviously you don't come from my family. Announcing bathroom

needs is a hallmark of any family get together! It has even become our family joke, because everyone does it and does not even think twice about what they said.

16. We announce bathroom breaks all the time.

And I never even thought about it before.

17. LOL- you will next time! n/t

2. UP, we've all been there. I had to take a break from DU after Katrina...

and it did wonders for my mental health.

Watch Animal Planet and old movies, and don't even look at the big 3 news networks.

Here's a hug for you, and I'm sending warm regards your way. :hug:

3. I understand how you feel.

Sometimes it all makes you so crazy. I have had to take a break before. I have also had to adjust my medication from time to time.

[brainshrub]

4. I did that about a year ago as well.

We'll keep the light on for you.

PM me when you get back.

:hi:

5. I've taken many breaks

since my tremendous heartbreak on Nov 3. Take care of yourself, and I hope to see you back soon. We need you.

6. I totally understand

and am thinking of doing the same. peace :hug:

7. Just finished my break today. I feel 100% better.. It gets to be too much

sometimes.. I took 3 or 4 days off, and I feel like a new women..

8. Go and recharge yourself

We all have to from time to time. The way things are in the world right now it's no wonder you feel like you need to take a break.

Do something you enjoy and relax. We'll be waiting for you when you're ready to return.

[Arkansas Granny]

9. I understand. Sometimes you need to move away from it for

a little while.

Peace.

10. I Stopped Watching the News Channels

It's really helped. I just come here instead. :)

11. I did that before.

It does help. Though I used Olbermann during my break. I was lurking on this site since 2004.

[Radio_Lady]

13. Welcome, Windy252. Nice to see you here!

This site MOSTLY helps, but sometimes it does pay to take a break.

Just like anything else, I guess.

Right now, I'm suffering from post-vacation depression. Got back a week ago and haven't even unpacked. I have to do it tonight.

My grandkids are coming over on Thursday for a three day romp at Grandma's and Grandpa's house.

I'm not ready.....

In peace,

12. Take care of yourself first, uppityperson. DU will

be here when you want it. :hug:
