As I wind down the workday today it amuses me to think that I'm just about done with work for the year. Today's Friday. Next week I'm taking PTO Mon-Tue, then my company has holiday recess from Wednesday (Christmas) through January 1. My next workday is Jan 2, 2025.
During most of that time off I will be on vacation out of the country. Hawk and I leave for Panama tomorrow night, returning Dec 31.
Sometimes I bring my work laptop with me on personal trips. It's to be able to stay in touch in case something urgent arises, or in (usually vain) hope of catching up on something I didn't finish before leaving. On this trip I emphatically will leave my work laptop home. I won't be working until 2025... except the 2-3 minutes a day I'll spend checking my email queue to delete all the spam, so I don't come back to 500 new messages of mostly junk on January 2.
