Dying for a Vacation

September 15th, 2006 by Emira · No Comments

Does this sound famil­iar to any­one else out there? You work your butt off, run around like the prover­bial chicken, and gen­er­ally work your­self into a state of total exhaus­tion for an entire week just to take a week or two off? That’s been my last week, and while it cer­tainly isn’t some­thing that only plagues the self-employed or entre­pre­neur­ial, as the gal run­ning the show it seems par­tic­u­larly hard to walk away from it even for a well deserved rest.

But y’all are a smart bunch of ladies. Any­one got any tips out there for me on find­ing some bal­ance in this jug­gling act so that the idea of tak­ing a vaca­tion isn’t so exhaust­ing? What do you do to get ready to take time off? How do you mit­i­gate the chaos? Or do you?
