Taking a mental health day tomorrow

Told my boss I'm not coming in. Been running on empty for weeks between the kids stuff, work deadlines, and just general burnout. My wife said I seemed on edge all the time. I'm going to sleep in, not touch my email, and just be present with my family. Should feel good to actually stop for a minute.

Good for you for actually taking it. So many of us just keep pushing through until we hit a wall. Your kids need their dad healthy more than they need him burning out.
Do something actually relaxing with that day. Don't spend it catching up on chores. That's not a break that's just a different kind of work.
