Merry Christmas! We haven't had big plans for Christmas for years and it's really nice. I ended up with a 3 week break this year instead of 2 weeks (we got 2 extra winter break days because we had to work 11/11 to make up class time - thanks staff contract - and so I took 3 extra days to make it 15 work days off). I was able to go home to see my family last week (I hadn't been home all year due to a sick pup) and I do have a break to do list, but I've also built in some down time.

These are some good thoughts for me. I feel like I am at somewhat of a turning point as my kids are in the older category and the days are not packed with activities. It feels weird but I need to just enjoy it instead of fear it. Thank you for this post

Merry Christmas, friend! You are smart beyond your years! So glad you have had this gift of Christmas time. Due to work, family health issues, and other commitments, the last month has been challenging and non-stop stressful. My body has reacted accordingly; woke up this morning with a raging sinus infection and now I’m having to decide if I should be around others for the holidays. Ugh! At my age, I should have learned to listen to my body! 🙄😂🎄
