Hi, all. I’ve decided to spend the day offline, off the news, off social media, and with my family. I’m not literally fishing, but I am giving myself a much needed personal day. I’ll be back with “Extra! Extra!” on Sunday and then back to the regular newsletter next week.
Yes! Jess! Whatever it takes to keep you energized in the long run and happy in all the runs. Please enjoy.
I'll take a leap and speak for many of us. There are a few precious substackers who I encourage to take breaks and recharge...because losing them would be heartbreaking and...nation breaking. Heather, Hubbell, Reich, Rosenberg, Vance, Hartmann and more...you get my drift.
As Joyce says, "we are all in this together". Find your balance. All in does not require all the time.
I agree with the others, I think you should take off several days, especially since you will be in upstate New York, Maine and Nova Scotia, some of the most beautiful areas of this great country. And so opposite of Southern California. Really good for your soul.
And if you must connect with us while on your vacation, just have it be the Sunday Extra, Extra, as that always helps all of us to keep going by seeing where we have made a difference. Other than that, just have some fun and relaxing time with the clan.
Please enjoy your day off!! You need it!! So forget about everything and self-advocate!! Whenever you're ready, we will be there for you and waiting to help!!
One day isn't nearly enough! How about a couple weeks to recharge? You've earned it, you deserve it, a lot of your readers will be on vacation. Please think about it! Thanks for all you do.
Glad you are taking care of yourself!
Ditto!
Well deserved!

Self care is so important!

Thank you, Terry. Hope you're well!
Better and better as each week goes by, thanks!!

I'm going to work next week and then likely take the next two weeks off. So that's the plan!
YAY!!!
WHAHOOOO!! Have a vacation, would you please! It helps us all.
I'll try!
Please enjoy your day off!! You need it!! So forget about everything and self-advocate!! Whenever you're ready, we will be there for you and waiting to help!!
Thanks, Laurie!
Good for you. Have fun. As one of my tee shits says “don’t forget to play” something as one gets older thinks applies only to children!
Absolutely!

I will be taking two weeks off--not next week but the two after. Promise!
Jessica, you are setting a good example in these trying times!
