After all that happened the past week both on the world stage, the US stage, and here at home, I really feel the need to step back and get off the Internet for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To step away from the twenty-four hours news cycle for a bit. Anything critical, I am sure that Peter will inform me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has become overwhelming to the point of being oppressive. I get anxiety every time I get a news notification over my phone wondering what new disaster happened or who died.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And that tells me I need to step back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I need to focus on things outside of my various screens other than writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My need to be an introvert for a bit is strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Part of this might come from starting a new job and having other people to interact with so I will not be as dependent on the Internet for social interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I can\u2019t place one thing that is making me feel this way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am going to try to keep up things here so this is where to find out what I am doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am grateful for realizing what I needed to do for me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
