Hey man, nice to see you around here again. I'm also in a somewhat similar situation, only without kids involved haha. I'm spending some time with my family and getting ready to move back to my home country (Venezuela) pretty soon, so I've been taking a break from Hive.
My brain is also thankful for not writing everyday.
We all have so much to do. Some with kids, others with moving or some other stuff. But we all have to enjoy what life offers us.
See you around!
