Karen works this Christmas and its GREAT!!! Why? Well, we have a traditional family thing on CHristmas Eve with Connie and Wayne et all at their place in Columbus. THEN.....Karen goes to work just like normal (She works night shift) and gets paid BIG BUCKS HOLIDAY pay. We'll stay at Connie's and Karen will join us for a big Christmas Day breakfast when she gets off at 7 AM.

Then we'll all go our different ways with us going home and sharing gifts at home as well. Karen will go to bed (as usual) and the be off til Monday night!!!

And the schedule is the same for New Years as well!


Sorry, but we really can use the OT Holiday pay and especially when it involves no real change in her schedule and not missing any family time and Christmas traditions.....and she gets TWO long weekends to boot!
