Kristen,

WOW..that thought never occurred to me! It’s actually rude to others isn’t it? I can’t believe this thought never crossed my mind.

Anyway, it’s going well. My daughter goes off to college in the morning and I work. When she’s home, we chill. It’s all good. Thanks,

Totally agree – it’s so hard to unplug. But I’ve seen my inability to put work on the back-burner during vacation take a toll on my relationship with family and friends. It sent the signal that I found my work to be more important than them…or their work…They were willing to take time off to spend time with me and it seemed I wouldn’t do the same.

Hope you’re enjoying your trip and have successfully unplugged!

I can say that may be I am a workaholic, because, I use to work approximately 18 hrs. a day including weekends. This has created a lot of family problem to me. Now, I think an workaholic also needs a vacation.
