Every year right after Thanksgiving I make it a point to take the rest of the year off.  Let me re-phrase that, I work much less than normal!  Business seems to slow and I've made enough through the year to just take some quality time off and enjoy where I live, my wife, my dog, and my friends.  A large percentage of our office does the same as well and numbers dont see to drop off all that much.

Thanksgiving is almost here and then it's partial vacation time.  Whooooo Hoooooooo!

Oh did I tell you that it doesn't snow here and that it's still 80 degrees outside???  LOL!  Hehe!
