So, what's your plans for your time off over the holidays? I've got 14 IBM training DVDs to wade through to bring myself back up to date. Probably need to sit another HP online exam too.
 
Days off? What is this thing you speak of?

I work next week while the rest of my family drives to see my Bro-in-law. I get to join them Friday the 30th...after work.
 
no extended time off here. working all day Christmas and New Years Day. doing the family thing on xmas eve. usual rotating days on/off otherwise.
 
Just 4 days of stressful stress-free living...:D Probably fishing. I'm TDY starting Tuesday, and ending Thursday, though. Local area DZ stuff...
 
I have to come in to work between the two holidays, but the 24th is the SO's brother's place, my family on the 25th, his family on the 26th and quiet time for new year's.
 
Time off? Ha.

Doing Christmas Eve and early Christmas morning with Caity's family, then driving back over here and doing Christmas night with my family. Then I work the day after Christmas.
 
I have thu and fri of this week off (two personal days I must "use or lose") but I scheduled my Security+ exam for friday. Saturday is at the wifes grandparents, Sunday at the father-in-laws, little brothers church play, then to the mother-in-law's, then midnight mass. Sunday starts at my parents then to the wifes other grandparents. Following weekend I will be traveling to see my grandparents without the wife, she's working (people don't stop being insane for the hollidays it seems).
 
Shopping on Saturday
family on Sunday
presents on Monday
working on the bookcase (building a built-in 8'x5' bookcase)
getting the final fitting for my teeth (has it been a year)
worrying how we're gonna pay for all this stuff.
Wishing there was another week off.
