No major holidays

Murica!

Depending on what's considered major, I've had three so far this year.

I had six so far ๐Ÿ™‚:
New Years, Good Friday, Easter Monday, Labour Day, Ascension Day, Pentecost.

There are only 4+ ยฒ/โ‚‚ official holidays left in the rest of the year though:
German unity day, Reformation day, 2 Christmas Days. Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve are ยฝ a holiday each.

Individually there's been a similar number here, but I tend to count several in a row as one, such as all the Easter stuff.

7 so far here. New Years Day, Epiphany, Good Friday, Easter Monday, May Day, Ascension, Swedish Flag Day, and Midsummer Evening.

It would be 11 if counting weekend holidays.

But now it's nothing at all until All Saints Day (which doesn't count, as it's on a weekend anyways), and then the three days of Christmas and New Years Eve. It's kinda annoying that they're not more evenly spread out.
