Dec 26th 2008 14:53 holiday

Hello, everyone.

Today, I cleaned my office with my colleagues. (In Japan, people have a tradition of doing a general cleaning at the end of each year.)

I have the New Year's holidays from tomorrow. I will enjoy staying home and relaxing with my family during the holiday.(We don't have any special travel plans partly because of the economic slump.)

Anyway, I'm sure we'll have great holidays. I'm looking forward to it.

I also wish you a Happy New Year!

I have the New Year's holidays from tomorrow.
I have the New Year's holidays fromstarting tomorrow.

Just about slam dunk, sir. The corrected sentence is grammatically fine and easy to unerstand, but natural English doesn't use phrasing like 「明日から」. We say "starting tomorrow". For another example,「会議は6:00から」becomes "The meeting will start at 6:00."

Happy New Year!
