The past two years I have taken vacation the week BEFORE Christmas as vacation. The week between Christmas and New Years I scheduled local visits. It worked wonderfully for being able to finish shopping and baking and enjoying the Christmas Season. . For some insane reason, this year I decided to take the week of Christmas. I scheduled local visits for the week before.........but since I wasn't ON vacation, my plan for local visit was changed by the powers that be. I spent the week in San Antonio, Texas.
The week was enjoyable. We were in downtown San Antonio, just two blocks from the River Walk. We worked diligently during the day, then shopped and ate in the evening. The hotel was quite c0comfortable and we had valet parking. The staff at the nursing homes were pleasant and appreciative of the audit. So what is the problem? I missed getting to spend shopping opportunities with Hillary. I missed preparing for Christmas. Rest assured that will not happen again.
The good news? It somehow worked out. This evening (December 23) we had a get together at Grandma's house. The kids were wonderful, gifts were exchanged, laughter was heard, and the spirit of the holidays was in our hearts.
