It's tough to be away from our family and friends during the holidays. Obviously we miss out on many family traditions and are beginning to create our own, but its the people that cannot be replaced.
For me, this has been a pretty tough December. Work has been non-stop, and I'm quickly burning out on the long hours and relentless workload. I am looking forward to spending some much-needed down time with Sam and Hunter in Northern California.
Sam, by contrast, is having a very slow season. He's working at Kaiser and they are pretty much closed for these next two weeks. He's been filling his time writing papers and taking care of the house, which I can't complain about. In fact, he's got a to do list to take care of before we leave town tomorrow when I get off.
We're really looking forward to having Carina and Justin home for the holidays. Justin will be around until Dec. 26 and Carina arrives on Dec. 27 so we'll be able to focus our undivided attention on each of them while they're in town.
On that note, I'd better put the finishing touches on my packing and get to bed - we have a very long day ahead of us tomorrow.
