Pros vs Cons to taking Capstone over winter break?

[suzycupcake]

It really just depends on your lifestyle.  When I was young and single, it would have been a perfect time to do it (my company shut down for 2 weeks over the holidays, but someone had to be there on the days the stock market was open to process stock options, I always offered because I was single w/no kids, and then had zero work to do when I was there but for maybe 20 minutes at 4pm-and I got paid double-time and had the undying gratitude of my married w/children co-workers).  Now, it would make me crazy.

OH WOW!  I would have loved you too for taking one for the team!!

But now you guys have me thinking twice about my whole plan.

My company shuts down between Christmas and NY and it's super slow for most of Nov and Dec. I was originally thinking it would be easy to get work done during those 2 months (my kids are in their teens and sleep late because they gamed most of the night so they won't bother me on school vacation time). But now I really have to think about this bc we go to Aruba for a week in mid Nov and that's 1-2 weeks into the Capstone.

My other consideration is, I guess, the choice of professors in the class (or should that really matter). I posted another thread about that one. 

Maybe I am biting off more than I can chew right now but I really wanted to just be DONE while it was slow for work.
