December

I had a fun but exhausting Thanksgiving. I went into the holiday week tired with a busy weekend before and some bad sleep early on in the week. Sophia, Colin, and I then pretty much made the trip to Baltimore and spent the next few days out and about.

It was anything but a relaxing week unfortunately. It’s once again, another adjustment that we’ll need to make in our new lives as parents. We just simply cannot handle overdoing things on these trips and we need to bake in more time to relax and recover.

On another note, it’s December and it’s crunch time. There’s a ton we need to get done at work in the next 2-3 weeks and there’s a ton I need to get done personally as well. My hope is that we can work hard to getting everything in a good spot in these next 2 weeks. Then we can spend one week of clean-up and wrap up the year casually before everyone takes off for the holidays.

It’s something that I have been preaching to the team. If we can work hard and take care of business these next 2-3 weeks, then we can have the full 2 weeks off at the end of the year to spend with our family and friends. It’s been a long year and I hope that everything goes to plan and we can get that much deserved break.
