I have always found it hard - being self employed and massage being the only income - to take time off for the holidays. On the one hand the money is needed and my clients are off for the holidays so it is a good time for them to come in. On the other hand I really need time off occasionally, but on the holidays that I don't have family coming over or me going somewhere I guess it doesn't matter if I take off.
Then that brings up the whole issue - you aren't having the family over for " " holiday - big meal and all. Awwww - maybe we should invite you over - or - lucky you, relaxing all day with no dinner to fix - except I have to play catch up on the laundry from doing all those massages the day before so I could take off. lol
I can't complain, business is fairly good and I do enjoy my days off, and do manage to take holidays off most of the time. I actually am planning on taking about 5 days off for Christmas since my Daughter and her family will be here from CA. I will have a house full and will probably be glad to get back to work just so I can rest a little. ;)
I love all my clients and am very thankful for their continued support of me and my business and I try to make myself available for them - within reason of coarse, and will continue to work the day before and after most holidays so that they can get their massages when they are off work - and bring in their family members while they are in town visiting.
