After years of doing everything the entire month of November. I started December 2020, a slow and steady way, but this is the first year I have written it down. Slow and steady but…WOW what a list.
Add what you need for yourself and family, and remember this is just Christmas, no Thanksgiving.
Start shopping as you go – see something pick it up, get one gift card per week,
Start any Handmade items you need to Make
Photo’s for cards (if doing)Schedule, whole family start talking and plan,
Start a Holiday Calendar – travel times, shopping days, other life appointments, doctor-dentist, birthdays etc.
Talk overwith loved ones who, what, where – travel? no travel? Who is hosting? Gifts? Photo Shot?
Meal ideas– purchase can goods and freezer items ONLY early if on sale
NOW on Kindle and in PRINT

Deep Clean the Living room– Declutter – This is the time I like to have drapes/curtains cleaned, larger rugs cleaned, shampoo carpets, any furniture that need cleaned or repaired.
Deep Clean Your own Bedroom and Closet – Take off bed skirt wash, vacuum under everything, declutter clean off and out your dresser. Dust blinds, clean windows, wash drapes/curtains, bedding, your main bathroom too – floor, grout, shower, toilets, clean light, mirrors, shower curtains and linens
Closet – Go through clothes, put summer away if climate allows, organize jewelry, shoes and bags. Send anything to dry cleaner
Budget– Plan ahead and make the holiday better without charging or worrying about money. I have a line budget column and I know the amount, know it’s saved and what can be spent, plan a head for next year start 2023 or now.
Purchase holiday home show tickets – Great early gift too !
