      Well, you are helpful, !

      I want to be off Monday-Wednesday, but I have no idea if that is too much time.

            With the dumb timing this year I was thinking of being off the whole week (Dec 21st to Jan 2 ) but it didn't work out. So, right now I'm not sure. Usually I take off the 25th and 26th and I'll probably do that. I'll only have one kid that whole week anyway.
            Hee hee! Look, I have a signature!

              I take Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, and New Year's Day. I also have the week between Christmas and New Year's Day off as well. As I have all teacher's children. I give them a break, 1/2 off for that week!!

                Monday through Friday the 24th to the 28th. I am open again on Monday Dec 31, only to be closed on Tuesday Jan 1st.

                Weird I know, but it is what it is and I do the best I can with the dates as they fall.

                I considered closing Monday the 31st as well and just have an extra long vacation but my daycare families all work so I will too.

                    I'm not sure yet this year. I always get the 24/25th and 31st/1st off as those are paid holidays for me. My current dcks will be gone the 24th - 28th week on vac so.. I'm thinking of taking Jan 2 -4 th off and having 2 week vacation... but I'm not sure. It would give me time with my own kids, which would be really nice

                        I figure I'm getting two four day weekends in a row! I've decided instead of using my vacation time up in the winter I'm going to go for the summer instead.

                        So we will still do some fun things on those two weekends.

                          I'm taking off Dec 20th - Dec 26th. Last year I only took Christmas/Boxing Day, but this year I decided to add a few days so we could go away.

                          It's in my contract that I am off Christmas and Boxing Day, so really it's only 3 extra days.

                            I always take off the "winter vacation" that the schools have off. My entire family has December birthdays and I REALLY need that time to de-stress, and take down all the Christmas decorations. This year the schools have off Dec. 22-Jan 1 resuming Jan 2 so that's what I'm going to do. Yes, it's a week and half off but that's just how it is. My daycare families are all pretty good with my days off so I don't forsee a problem.
