This feels like the only time I truly have a break from work. If you're currently a client of Keep IT Defended then you know that we close up shop between Christmas and Janauary 1st! I always have my daughter with me from Christmas Day at 3pm till New Year's eve at 3pm which is the real reason I close up shop so I can maximize my time with her and make the holidays and even more special time! In case you're not aware here is our holiday schedule:
Thursday December 23rd - Normal business hours 8:30am to 5pm
Friday December 24th to Monday January 3rd inclusive - Closed
Tuesday Janauary 4th - Normal business hours 8:30am to 5pm
(for clients with service plans we can still be reached for emergency calls)
It's hard to believe we're still in this pandemic? I know I find it frustrating and now talks about lockdowns again with the latest variant. Not looking good for the Rangers game I bought tickets for on the 28th which is one of Jillian's (daughter) Christmas gifts - it's to be her first time at a live game. She got into trading hockey cards (from Tim's) this year and has expressed interest in seeing a live game.
What are your plans for the holidays?
Happy Holidays Everyone - See you next year!
Until then, stay safe,
