When's the December GTG?

[drloretta]

I was going to push it back to mid Jan. BUT I'm off 12/24-1/4, so I'm game for a GTG

[bostonmichelle]

I'm game for a GTG at that point. I usually take off a bunch of time at the end of the year, not sure what my plans are yet still though. But I'll definitely be around the weekend between Christmas and NY's.

[soxin2]

What is the next gtg?
Is it/will it be tiny human friendly?

[cgpm]

I'm off that week too. I could be up for something.

[mcc]

I have to work but can squeeze something in if it's in town or otherwise on the weekends.

[caligirl22]

I'm available!

[LoveTrains]

Let's do it while rnv is here!!!

[soxin2]

(By "tiny human" I mean the portable one, not the other two. )

[Lilac]

The only day I might be available is the 26th. I'll be in Honduras scuba diving after that

This sounds awesome!  Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure the 26th won't work for me.  How do people feel about the 29th or 30th?  Sorry, mcc, I know that's Mon/Tue but I think I'll have family obligations over the weekends.  I assume people have plans on the 31st (NYE).

soxin2, sorry to you too but I think this one will be adult-oriented.

I think both of those days could work for me.

No worries. Depending on what time and where, I may be able to come but if it doesn't work out, I'll be okay with the fact that you had fun and got to see some of the awesome ladies here

[mswax]

I could do the 29th or 30th. Yay for finally being able to make a GTG.

I'd prefer something slightly outside the city so parking isn't a total PITA, but if that's not convenient for others I can suck it up!

[rikki]

Can we do the 20th or 21st? I leave for Chicago on the 22nd.

Also, no, I did not! I am waiting for John to give the go ahead. His trial that was scheduled for right before Christmas just got postponed, so waiting to see the new date from the court. FINGERS AND TOES CROSSED IT IS NOT THEN. I am so excited and I don't think that the trail will interfere, but just need to make sure.

[rikki]

Also, I just saw that you cannot do the 20/21st....

[bostonmichelle]

If I'm not working I could do the 29th or 30th. I think I'm going to take the time off, but I want to make sure that my boss is okay with it.

[liveintheville]

I can do the 29th or 30th.

[caligirl22]

I can do the 29th or 30th also.

[elfinia7]

If it's evening time I'm free the 29th and 30th. No plans for me I actually don't have NYE plans either, it's shaping up to be a bit of a lame holiday season I think. lol

Awww, I'm working.  I'll keep an eye out, if you guys do dinner I might be able to join after work.

Also, can I complain that my stupid job won't let me take any days off for the holidays this year?  I might actually have to cancel my trip to my sisters for Xmas because "one of us has to work 12/26" and that appears to be me.  Grrr... I'm not bitter.  My boss still hasn't replied as to whether I can work remotely or not (even though no one one my team will be here).

[les]

RockNVoll - I would love to see you! The 29th and 30th both work well for me. I'm looking forward to a potential December GTG!

I'm thinking maybe something simple like pizza and wine/beer at my place. SOs could come too; we'll make a little party of it.

I should probably run this by DH, LOL.

That sounds like a great idea. Let us know what day and what we can bring.

This sounds great, though I'm not sure DH would be interested.  If it's at your house, how would you feel about little ones coming too?

[cgpm]

RockNVoll

This sounds good to me.  I will bake something yummy for you all.  I can probably twist DH's arm into coming, especially if I'm bringing baked goods. Hahaha!

[drloretta]

Count me in! MIL will be here to watch S if necessary

Seriously?  That completely sucks.  How did you draw the short straw?  Tenure?  And does someone really "need" to be working (i.e. be available for customers) or is that just bs?

I guess its tenure.  The thing that annoys me is that my boss didn't specifically say I have to work, just that one of us does. Other coworker worked friday after Thanksgiving (by choice), so I feel like I have to.  I just dislike her passive agressive managing.  And that it seems like my coworker gets first pick and then I'm left to cover if he wants to be out.  It is also BS because I guarantee there is no real reason I need to be here, we never get emails or cases that need to be handled same day.

I am in!! I will be around on both the 29th and the 30th and don't have work.

[lizlemon19]

I could be down as long as weather isn't horrible since I have a bit of a drive. DH is off for the week and can manage the kiddos.

[LoveTrains]

Hrrmm, apparently I might need to breeze into the office for a bit on the 30th but as long as we aren't planning a GTG from 10 am - noon I should still be good!!

[bostonmichelle]

So I'm off both the 29th and 30th (And multiple other days because my boss is awesome) but have plans to meet other friends for drinks on the 29th now. So looks like the 30th would work best for me.
