This last month has had a lot of time thinking about and planning for Christmas. Here, with the updated Advent calendar and considering back-up plans in case of sudden restrictions (especially now with the Omicron variant), and in the Office with Christmas lunches and all the other festivities of the season. In some ways, I’m… Continue reading Notes From My Office: November 2021
