Yes. Myself.  Very busy with good volume this month, and can't believe we're within a couple weeks.  I do have some Christmas-focused events over the next 2 weeks though, so I will enjoy it a bit more as the Christmas parties & time with family & friends comes around.

I agree with you - It is such a special time - I am always glad and grateful that my two children come home for Christmas - now the older one comes with wife and child - so It forces me to slow down and enjoy the season!

Not specifically but I have recommended slowing down. When you move to fast you go right past opportunity in your speed to get somewhere.

I do so myself, but rarely poke my nose into someone else's lifestyle. I suppose it's because I don't want anyone "minding my business."
