Quiltswithdogs, I went a few months without quiting too.. I found myself getting more stressed out over even simple things :( It was not a good for myself or my family..
Right now it seems to be an outlet for you with all that is going on.. So it is a positive thing.. I understand the guilt but you also have to put that aside.. Keep up on your other obligations but when you have the time-take it..
You will be in my thoughts and prayers...
