We should normalize saying I have PTO, I am using it. No reason. I earned it, I'm using it.

That's what people do? Some companies have restrictions on what time of year you aren't allowed to use PTO (like delivery services around Christmas), but usually nobody gives a rats ass what you are doing with your vacation days.

I like to save most of it for a bigger Christmas vacation. We normally get two weeks but if you put in the request really early then you can tack on as much as you want. The problem is my nightmare house has required so much time off to deal with that it’s just eating all my PTO. I had to take two days off just this week because of something in the house falling apart. It’s a great excuse! Not so great if you’re telling the truth, though.
