Re: How to get some vacation time.
I was in a very similar situation. I can tell you that it will be difficult to take a time off without taking your laptop.
First thing, I have started to implement is to get away from working weekends. Unless, it is an emergency or I have to catch up with late work I don't work on Sundays now (I have implemented that gradually), I try to stay away from work on Saturdays as well. If I have to I try to work only Saturday morning.
In addition, again except of emergencies, I try to work between 8 am and 5 pm local time. I know that Internet is suppose to be open 24/7 but trying to keep with regular business hours helps a lot.
To summarize, I suggest that you gradually teach your clients that your work is done a bit differently then until now.
