Are any of you working over the “holiday break” if you have one? I’ll probably do a little work. If not, how are you staying away from doing or even thinking about work?

I’ve really been trying to throw myself into whatever I’ve been doing at home. I do have a tendency to check on emails or work related things. Getting my mind busy with anything else has been a huge help to me. Also trying my hand a few new recipes and that has been fun.

How’d those new recipes turn out? Hopefully you found a way to avoid working over the holiday.

I had to work over the Thanksgiving break, but the day itself I was totally off. I am doing my best to learn from that mistake on this next break. It’s so tempting to catch up on things, but I could really use some vegging-out time.
