My one rule for May 1

My team's account doesn't usually get holidays off. That is just the math of working a US shift. The rest of the country closes and we keep clicking. So when the holiday list dropped in December and I saw that May 1 actually lands on a Friday this year and that my schedule for that week genuinely matches up, I started counting down. The aircon is rattling again. Anyway. The one rule I have set for myself is that the work laptop does not leave the bag. Not for a quick check. Not for one Slack message I tell myself will only take a second. The beach posts are piling up in my feed and I am not booking anything. Staying home. My friend laughed when I told her my big plan is to walk to the wet market Saturday morning and buy too much fruit, which is fair, and honestly I realize how much I needed a weekend that does not need to be optimized. #mentalhealth #selfcare #longweekend #restandreset
