A Quick Holiday Post (or I Hope You Are All Up To Fun Things This Weekend)

Even though the holidays don’t start until tomorrow, I know that today is the first day of holiday time off for many people. For me, it’s the first day off from one job, but I still have to work the other. But that is still a break from my usual schedule and craziness. And I’m planning on enjoying that time so this post is going to be something short and quick.

I know that not everyone spends the holidays with their family. I don’t do that since my family doesn’t celebrate Christmas. But I do hope that however you are celebrating the holidays, you are doing what you want to do and are able to have some fun. Even if you have to work for part of this weekend, I hope that there is still some time to relax.

I feel like we all have had a crazy year this year. It’s really been a crazy 3 years if you think about when the pandemic started. And things still aren’t back to what we all consider normal yet. But even with things being not quite normal, there is still a lot for us all to celebrate. Even if you don’t celebrate Christmas or any holidays this time of year, since we are coming up on the new year it’s a great time to reflect on what we are all grateful for. I know I complain a lot about different things, but I am so lucky in so many ways. And I appreciate getting to celebrate holidays in ways that make me happy.

So for this weekend, I’m planning on doing a lot of nothing and just enjoying some free time to relax. I will probably order Chinese food for Christmas since that’s my tradition. And while I don’t think I will go out to see a movie in theaters, I probably will watch at least one or two movies during my time off. To me, that’s the perfect way to celebrate this time of year!

So Merry Christmas to those of you who celebrate and Happy Hanukkah to those who celebrate that. And if you don’t celebrate anything this time of year, I hope you still are enjoying your time doing whatever you get to do this long weekend!
