That sounds very wise, and I wish I was as wise as that. I seem to have decided a while back that one assignment per exchange isn't enough for me, and I've been running myself ragged trying to keep up.

It's also very frustrating and guilt-inducing to keep having to put off commenting (which I find much harder than writing) for the sake of not missing deadlines. So yes, I think you're making a good choice, and giving yourself permission to write again next week will feel like a gift. :D
