Dear fellow CPSIA opposers:

I have lived, slept, eaten and breathed this issue for nearly four months now. My teeth are sore from grinding. I have places on the sides of my head that are sore to the touch from constant tension. Like Whimsical Walney, I catch myself forgetting to breathe at times.

The ironic thing is, I have not lost much, aside from an enjoyable hobby. Others have lost their livelihood.

So considering how this has affected me, and how little I have to contribute to the cause, I must unplug from this issue for a short while. I need to take care of myself and my family. If I can be of service, please leave a comment here and I'll see it.

Many thanks,
Kim

It's smart that you know when to step back in order to recharge and determine how you can work for a cause in which you believe while still staying sane.

Since I know this fight is far from over, if and when you are ready to step back into the conversation your insight, feedback, and renewed energy will be a wonderful contribution.

Enjoy your family and may you all have a wonderful Spring & Summer together.
