It's Christmas Eve. 5 years ago I spent my last Christmas Eve working in the restaurant business. Four days later I was DONE working. While there have been some challenges, both financial and adjusting to staying at home, the choice is one of the best I ever made. I don't think
Puddin' Pop would be here if I hadn't stopped working. There just wasn't enough time for working 50+ hours a week, taking care of a toddler, taking care of a household
and taking care of a husband. I just didn't have it in me.
As I sit here typing this, while baking a cake and playing Lego Batman with
Boog, my heart goes out to all the poor souls that have to work today. Be it the restaurant business, retail, or an ever-so-busy
fulfillment center, these people are working hard for us to be able to have a great holiday. I think everyone should be a little extra nice while out shopping and eating today. Be nice to those that have to work. Be
grateful if you're one of the lucky ones that gets to spend time with your family, be considerate to those that don't.
Have a very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year
