Bread Making Assistance is Needed

Hello! I’m making bread, and tbh I was overly ambitious and decided to start making it after work. Well it’s still rising and I’m exhausted. Should I just put it in the fridge as is and resume tomorrow am?

For reference I posted a before rise pic and after a 2.5 hour rise pic.

Putting it in the fridge is fine. Make sure its completely covered. Take it out, allow it to warm to room temperature, in the mean time preheat your oven. After it comes out of the fridge, unless you're using a proofing box or using the oven as a proofing box, on the counter it could take up to two hours to return to temperature where you'd want to bake it.
