Happy holidays, good luck, don't work too hard

Burnout is a thing. Don't forget to recharge.

I just saw the Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die trailer. I really wanted to use the title for a post, alas… it wouldn’t work. But it reminded me how important it is to take care of ourselves.

These past few months were very busy. I had two projects compounded on top of each other — one, a client modernization effort; the other, a new release of an analytics tool we use with our customers. It was more than I like to take on at one time and, yes, I got a bit burned out.

Which is a good reminder — prioritize your well being!

Work will always be there. Life will pass you by.
