Christmas!!!

Would you like to start thinking about Christmas earlier this year?

I know a lot of you just can't get yourselves to actually go out and buy Christmas gifts this time of year. 

So, what can you do to prepare for Christmas?

Get one of those 10 cent notebooks from Walmart and start writing!

Write down who you want to buy gifts for this year.  Write down gift ideas too.

Write down what you would like to cook for your holiday meal.  Make out the grocery list.

What kind of crafts would you like to do this season?

What would you like to bake?

Do you have a holiday movie that you want to find and watch this year?

How would you like to decorate?

Record all of your great holiday ideas in your notebook.  It really helps to have everything written down in one place!  Half of being organized is knowing what you are going to do!

Have fun!!

Christmas!!!!

I started shopping early for friends adn family several years ago when my mother and I owned a gift shop. We were so busy taking care of the shop during the holiday season and it was hard to get away to do our own shopping, so I made it a habit then to get all my shopping DONE before Thanksgiving. It is quieter and you don't have to fight the crowds at any of the stores that way. I have carried that little habit on to today as well and have already started making several Christmas presents.

That's a good idea. I have actually been thinking of what to make for families that we like to make things for. Hmmm-you got me thinking more. Holly
