What Will You Do On Your Christmas Vacation?

12 · 20 · 12
My Rants

I have a few Wednesday’s off and I am thrilled. Our team, probably like yours, puts a lot of energy into our meetings, so resting our brains is priority one during this time. I don’t know how you will spend your time this holiday season, but here are my plans.

  • Catch up on my reading (both Bible and other books)
  • Hang out with the family and play some Fluxx
  • Work on my Squidoo lenses
  • Sleep
  • Be happy (sounds weird, but I have to take time to reflect to do this)
  • Do some writing (I think I am going to go back to my physical journals for a bit)
  • Explore some new opportunities ( I don’t know what this means, but I’ll have my eyes open)
  • Organize and purge my comic book collection
  • Clean my downstairs office
  • Dream about and set some goals (not resolutions) for 2013
  • Connect with students (but that is another post)

That’s it. Down time is awesome and I am going to take full advantage of it.

What will you do with your Christmas vacation?
