How much time for break?

Published

So what does everyone get for Christmas/Winter break?

We get out at 2pm on the 22nd (movie and party day - so will be nice and quiet day in here) and then have off until a staff inservice day Jan.3 and kids are back Jan 4th.

Specializes in School Nursing.

Our last day is the 22nd and we return on the 3rd. I picked up a 4 hour evening shift in the NICU on the 22nd and then I'm free and clear until the 3rd. My husband took off the week between Christmas and New Year's. Can't wait! Lots of quality family time!

And I'm seriously needing a break. I'm fed up with certain school avoidance kids and parents these days.

This Friday is our last day! We come back on the 2nd for staff development, and kids come back on the 3rd. I am SO ready for this break! The week after Christmas I am getting to go away for 6 days to celebrate our 29th Anniversary and husband's 50th birthday!

When I saw the topic headline, I thought it was going to be MINUTES, not days (for you school nurses). Last night I clocked out for my usual huge, long (right) alleged 30-minute break, and probably wasn't 15 minutes into it when a dr. came in, I took her to a patient I really wanted her to see, got numerous orders, etc. Happens all too often, but it's not surprising.

Godspeed. I was just at Epcot and Animal Kingdom this past weekend and it was a nightmare. I only live an hour away so I can go anytime but the traffic was just awful.
