Fact: This is the first time in my career that I have taken summer vacation. It is also the first time in my career that I have taken 2 weeks off in a row.
This is a big step for me, and I'm actually having a little bit of anxiety about being away from the office for an extended amount of time. I pretty much spoon with my blackberry each and every night. In fact, the first thing I look at when I wake up? My blackberry.
This is not normal. I know.
I'm going to make a real effort to take a step back from work over the next 2 weeks. Like I wrote about the other day, I can't do it all.... nor do I have to. The show will go on without me.
I have a crazy day ahead of me which consists of: tying up loose ends at work, procuring a new suit case at lunch, (mine was damaged last time I traveled and I kind of forgot) a gym/dinner date tonight, cleaning house, and doing laundry. Good thing I work well under tight deadlines eh?

Yes! Take a step back! When people/managers make themselves available 24/7, then no one else steps up to the plate, it's so easy to fall back on the one person who is always there!
Is someone acting for you? Delegate everything to them!!
ENJOY your vacation, and try your best to forget about work!
