take the time you need to take off of your bike. you will know when the time is right to get back on. if it is not fun, it is not worth doing.
I agree with this 100%

I think there is a whole lot more here than bicycles. Except for those layoffs hanging over your heads, I'd probably say a cruise or some vacation very far away from bikes for the both of you would be in order.

You don't get paid to ride a bike. It's not your job. It's something you do for enjoyment...usually. If it's not enjoyable, then it's okay to take a break from it.

Good luck and best wishes.
