(Video link HERE.) It has been a TIME the past five months, with serious life events that have continued since June. Just as we’ve gotten our balance, another big wave hits. They say that big things happen in clusters and they have for us; we’ve been improvising like crazy, finding many unexpected answers as we go.

But we realized today we’ve hit a WALL and are seriously running-on-empty. Watching this beautiful clip from the Amazon series Alpha House made us realize that we just need a few days AWOL to regroup. We’re taking a cue from John Goodman and going off-the-grid. We know from experience that stopping—taking time, off!!— is sometimes the most healing of therapies.

We’ll be back next week.
