you could either get a sitter or give your workers, cities, research and units queued orders. Just hold down the shift key and select away.
The only thing is if someone declares war on you or you want to do any trades during that time. Then you definatly need a sitter. I know that I'll be away the last week of the year so it would be nice if that week we could shut it down, but I don't think that it's mandatory.
