Short Weeks are the Best!

This week happens to be the week of Thanksgiving! I love this time of year because there are just so many different holidays jammed into a short time period which breaks up the work week nicely. Of course right now its Thanksgiving which is basically a huge reason for everyone to forget their diets and just pig out on a huge bird with all the trimmings. Almost everyone gets the day after Thanksgiving off which is the busiest shopping day of the year. I remember some years getting my butt up at 6am to go Christmas shopping but I think I'm going to avoid that this year and just get most of the things I need online if possible.

After Thanksgiving comes Christmas of course, NOT the happy holidays. CHRISTMAS!!! The most wonderful time of the year! There are 2 days off (which again breaks up the ole work week) plus gifts for all the good girls and boys (and in my case cats as well). Although these short weeks cause some complications at work like people taking time off or trying to get things done at the final hour, its just nice to know that there is an extended weekend coming up where work is forgotten and time with my wife and cats is all I have to look forward to :)
