Good for you @newageinv!
"However, I thought I really needed a break to recharge my energy after a couple of weeks of intense work schedules that have really taking their tolls and brought on some more gray hairs."
Sounds like you definitely need the time away. For your sake, I hope you can focus on the family and creating some great memories and leave work, investments, etc. "in the rearview mirror" ...
At least for a little while! 👍
