Surely, Kat.

BTW, "this coming Sunday" is much better than "the following week". It is clearer and more specific. I can learn from the interaction with you on the forum. It's great!

Glad to hear that.

Most often "next week" is used if you are talking about the whole coming week or a week from today (so it can fall on any day of the week). "The following week" is used when a starting day in the past or future is clear.

Here's a better way to use "following":

"Our next meeting will be on Dec. 19. Then we will be off for the holidays the following week and resume two weeks after that."

Thanks for the elucidation. Now I have a better understanding of it.
