How you will you get the most up-to-date information for Boxing Day if you are off the grid??? 

How will you know where Santa Claus is in the world and how and where our great military will be escorting him as they have done since the 1950s?

Other than blogging which is a passion and FacBooking with friends & family since they seem to reply faster to that than phone calls, I'll be off the grid 12/24/2016-01/02/2017...that's right, a whole 9 days off the grid. I've never worked the week between Christmas and New Year's Day as a Realtor..ever. I love having that vacation each year to relax, travel and final prep my goals for the New Year. I'll outlast you if you never put down your tools and have more fun in the process. Rest-Run-Succeed!

I always check incoming stuff 365 days a year so I'm on the clock as needed

Several years ago, I answered my phone xmas eve - 3 days later I wrote a $500k cash offer on a condo

Yah, I'm on the clock LOL

No rest for the wicked here!

I won't be off-grid until about noonish on Christmas Day, when my company arrives.  Then I will be mostly off-grid for the following 8-10 days while I am away playing at the Oregon Coast.

I will not be available at some times but will check for messages on Christmas Day.

I will be online and probably on AR, too, but I'm also planning to spend quality time with family and friends. 

I'm sure I'll be back on the grid early morning 12/26

I will shut it off for Mass, then I will be back on.

Nope!

I'll be on a cruise and no time or inclination to look at email. Rest, enjoying family and a trusted agent to watch my buiness..see you in 2017!

Actually I will start from 3pm Friday (Christmas Eve's Eve) until all day 26th. 

I'm off the grid most every evening.

Ha Ha! - I am a real estate junkie.... that should answer your question!  Merry Christmas!!

Always on...never off until I decide different

That is designated family time for me!

I am never off the grid so i will be looking and responding. I would like to be really off the grid on a warm island wth no grid. 

Well, I can't help but, peek - although I'll be MOSTLY off-grid!

I will not be off the grid.  I do not celebrate Christmas so will be available and working ... business as usual.  May likely be I am working on my business as I do not expect I will be listing or showing homes during that time ... yet we just don't know what tomorrow will bring.

I will be online at times during the day..... email....facebook and other sites....

I hope I will not be doing only personal looks at email

If there is a new email/text alert, I check it.

I love real estate and will probably be checking emails and texts after our big family Christmas Eve celebration!  :)

A day off? That's when all the good stuff happens! I'll be checking, but not as much as usual!

I'll answer my phone - on Christmas it's usually relatives.

I will peek and probably answer some emails. 

Time will tell but the fingers may be on the keyboard some during that time.

PEEKING!

Still working since my Sandy is 2300 miles away. What else is a guy to do?

Maybe some AR, the rest is off grid maybe for a bit longer than you!

Annette,

We will be off the grid for part of the time.  We do have work to complete for one of our clients.  A

I always check but respond selectively.  I don't want anything to trigger an emergency ride with my reindeer and sled. 

I will be checking if I become bored.

Wellllll..... My intent is to be off the grid, but I know I will peek. And then my intent will be not to answer any messages, but if it's something I don't want to let wait, I just might send a little response.  I won't be able to help myself.

More than likely I will celebrating the holidays and doing shopping.

   The email will all be from businesses wishing me a Merry Christmas.  It can wait!

Always have to check the email to delete the crapiola, but not intending to work.  We live in a very diverse community and it's not unusual to have showings on Christmas Day, so I have let my sellers decide individually whether they want the homes shown.  Some are out of town, and it's no big deal.  But personally, I'm not working. 

Annette Lawrence , Palm Harbor, FL 727-420-4041 Turning the ringer off. Emails can wait.

I will be off the grid from December 23 @10 am to December 26 @ 8 am.

Just like three squares a day the emails cannot go unattended but essentially I'm off the grid with force field up from Thanksgiving through the first Monday after the New Year.

I will peek if I have time. Merry Christmas wishes tend to come in by email and texts throughout the day.

I've got to do a little peeking.

I am off the grid as of Christmas Eve morning through the 25th. But that does not mean I won't check in on emails... just doesn't mean I'll be responding to any.

Or perhaps a little longer than that... Time off and down time are just as important as work time... life requires balance.

No, but I will be very cautious about when I look and for how long. I am a property manager so I try to determine whether something requires immediate attention or can wait until the following business day. Almost everything can wait.
