Beyonce Knowles had such a crazy 2009, that she really wants to take a 6-month break from work. The "Crazy in Love" singer, who is married to hip-hop mogul Jay-Z, wants to focus on her personal life, and spend some more time with her 5-year-old nephew.

Here is a caption.She said: "It's definitely time to take a break, to recharge my batteries. I'd like to take about six months and not go into the studio. I need to just live life, to be inspired by things again. I’m going to do random things. I want to go to restaurants, maybe take a class and see some movies and Broadway shows. I’ll spend more time with Daniel. He's a wonderful kid, amazing, so smart. And I spoil him, so it's a lot of work. He's a 24-hour job."

However, Beyonce, 28, admits she will find her music sabbatical tough. She said in an interview with the USA Today newspaper: "It will be the hardest thing in the world for me to make myself not do an album and shoot a video and turn it in and say, 'I'm ready!' I already have all these melodies and ideas in my head. I have to tell myself, 'Sit down! Sit down!' "
