If you aren't having anyone check on the house from time to time; Don't forget to shut off the water and gas... Last thing you need is a flooded home or one that burnt down then receive a huge bill as a kick in the stomach while you are down.
Turn off breakers but keep the fridge and freezer on (food is expensive compaired to the electric to keep it cold) and any outside lights. If the outside lights aren't automated consider a timer or a motion detector retrofit or just replace them with light/motion sensing models.
