I think limiting online time a little bit is a smart idea right now. I love y'all and I don't want to shove my head in the sand, but it helps no one to slip into doomerism or to get so overwhelmed I'm mopey at work or around the kids. Be the person you need right now. Fight back, find joy, rest.

You have to do what is best for you. Everything in balance.

Pouring, empty cups, etc. Anyone who gets mad at folks for resting or for finding what happiness they can isn't doing The Cause (any of 'em, take your pick) any favors. Enjoy your respite from All This! :)

Always remember that hope is a discipline, and if things get hard, I want to handle them as well as I can and still laugh. And still make jokes. Because it takes a lot of work to keep the good stuff in your heart, but that work is worth it. No one can take it if I don't let them.
