BBJ,

Idaho (at least this part) is beautiful right now. The trees are all turning and the Aspens are amazing. Arizona is nice, but I'm not a desert guy. The Oregon Coast is one of my favorite places on earth. I hear Montreal is wonderful. I had hoped to go there soon.

You absolutely should take a personal day. Maybe two. You'd be a better mother when you got back. I'm sure the kids would understand.

It's time for you to focus on you and the kids. Get back on the road to happytown and figure it out. Life is too short to look backward for too long.

I'm here for you.
