Self explanitory. What're you doing for the holidays.


I'm going to the range on thanksgiving(woot!), then gorging myself on duck.

For christmas, I dunno what I'm going to do, probably spend it with my sisters or with my girlfriend.

Staying away from the relatives, it seems. One of them has a virus, possibly a flu, but regardless, we can't come together due to it being fresh and very contagious still.

Kals is questing again!
My family spent thanksgiving together celebrating my brother's birthday last month, postponing our thanksgiving celebration to last weekend. We don't really think of Thanksgiving as being part of "the holidays" up here though.

For Christmas, my sister-in-law has to work (she's a nurse) so instead of my brother and his family coming up as usual, we (my parents and I) are going to spend a week in the Greater Vancouver area for Christmas on Christmas Eve (the kids won't know any better, they're not in school yet) and a bigger family feast on Christmas Day at my (pregnant!!!) cousin's new house, with a possibility of some aunts and uncles and stuff present. I haven't had a massive family Christmas like this since I was a really little kid and had grandparents come visit -- we could never go anywhere during Christmas break because my dad's first wife would always take us to court for custody of my older brother. Every year. At Christmas time. And she always lost. xd

This is also the first Christmas that I will not expect to be completely buried in snow.
Check sig for details!

That sucks, Tae. Unless you're getting a really good amount of holiday pay, that is.

And that sucks your family is sick, Jaft. Me and my whole family are ill right now ...but, we're just going to have to be ill together sweatdrop

This year will probably be the same as usual. Stay home with the family. Eat food. Good times. cool

Pretty sure Tae gets paid overtime wages for the hours he works Christmas Day plus 8 hours of stat pay. At least that's what the labour laws in Alberta dictate. Not sure if they're the same in other provinces, but I think stat pay is a federal thing.

First time I'm not spending Thanksgiving with my family. I'm spending it with boyfriend and his parents. =) Can't wait til tomorrow and I get to eat delicious food.

As for Christmas, dunno yet. There's talk about maybe visiting NY (where I'm from, not this hellhole of a state NC) and that would be most awesome. Haven't seen any of my friends or family since the end of June.

We shall see. *taps chin thinkinglike*

Thanksgiving went to my daughters home. She and her Husband had a terrific spread of Food. Have not made my mind up to what I will do for Christmas.
