With the Pope in the news, it got me thinking… How often do you work on Sundays? I’ve been trying not to work (or rather, catch up) on weekends in general, but Sundays in particular, for the last few months. It’s hard, because I find myself wanting to play catch-up (and I never email anyone on weekends, for what it’s worth). I was wondering if anyone else struggles with Sunday laptop time.
