I have been running crazy buzy, between work, kids, Chanukah prep so I am not ready with Chanukah cards/tips. I went to DD's Chanukah Chagiga today,and a lot of mothers gave cards to teachers there, I felt so disorganized  . I left my house extremely early this am , and had to stay late at work to make up for time off I took in the middle of the day. Anyway, teachers, does it matter to you if you receive cards when kids come back to school next week? I hope not

There was a thread about this exact topic within the past 2 days. I am not a teacher, and get neither gifts nor cash bonus for my holiday or any other, but as I see it, a gift is a gift, not payment for services rendered. If you're not paid on time, you have a legitimate gripe. If you get a gift, you have no right to gripe about when it's received. Of course, if you receive a Chanuka-themed gift after Chanuka, it loses its ta'am, but methinks a hat-and-glove set is just as warm after Chanuka as before.

Thanks Zaq! I feel better today, and Chanukah vacation has started anyway. I am hoping to have time on Sunday to write thank you cards. I guess I am just tired of being tired and overwhelmed and behind schedule all the time ( but that's whole other vent )

If it makes you feel better, I feel the same way. I am feeling too overwhelmed and the rebbe, teachers and therapists will be receiving their gifts after vacation. My problem though, I can't even seem to gather my thoughts to write something nice. And I do want to. It's just not going. Arghh.
