Nice Mark, I think the opposite happened for me though. I enjoyed my 3 months off so much I was depressed going back to work haha!

I changed jobs recently but, unfortunately, wasn't able to take a break. I agree, taking a break between jobs can be a great way to recharge. My wife and I took a 2-week vacation a year and half ago and it really helped to have that break. By the time it was over, I was ready to get back to work and hit it hard.

That's great, I think taking a break is the best/smartest thing I could have done. I recommend it to everyone!

I think what I am doing now is called a break. I am def recharging.

Thanks Tushar, yea you can really only take time off in-between jobs if you have a decent EF or everything budgeted out accordingly. I'm glad I took the break and I would recommend it to anyone who would listen to me.

Having some time to breath in between jobs is never something that you'll regret. That is, unless you are struggling financially, but it appears that you are fine in that respect. Sounds like you had a great hiatus and accomplished a lot.

Yea being in debt can really hamper you career-wise. But at least you're aware of it and on the right path. Eventually you'll get there and then you can have a little more freedom.

A big reason why I'd love to be debt free is so I can try a new career option. With my debt load now, I can't go to any other career as I'd have to start at the bottom salary wise, but being debt free I could try new options. Hope the new job works out!

Thanks Emily, yep that's about what I did haha. I can imagine maternity leave is no vacation although I might hire a babysitter(or parents) for a few hours a day to get some ME time!

Congratulations on the new job! I would travel, work on blog, and play if I had three months off between jobs. I was off for a year for maternity leave, but being at home with an infant was more work than a day job.
