That’s prime time for families to take their kids on winter break trips. Avoid the usual touristy places like Hawaii, Cancun, Aruba, Bahamas, etc. try some of the other Caribbean islands. Antigua is really nice. St Lucia is also beautiful.

Is it crazy to switch a job while undergoing IVF?
I’ve been in my current role for almost 4 years. While I am generally happy, & have flexibility with time off for personal matters, there are things that bother me. I have an offer for way more money, manager title (which I want), much larger bonus & IVF benefit is better. However, I’m in the middle of stims and it is STRESSFUL. Part of me can’t imagine taking on a new role while I’m in the middle of this. But also feel like I can’t pass it up

Are you spending time with family this month or next? My parents are still really worried about Covid since I work in the hospital so it looks like I may be spending the holiday season alone.
