I think you give solid advice. I have been thinking about it and I do need to be stable for a longer period of time to be able to handle the stresses of working. I was also thinking when I go back to start with 3-4 days a week for the first couple of weeks. Maybe Mon-wed-fri the first week and then taking Wed off the next 2 weeks to get a break in the middle of the week.
Thanks for the replies, I really appreciate it!
