Christmas already? This is what I find myself asking when all of the stores begin stocking up on wrapping paper. But yes, November is the time for Christmas shopping. For many years I held out and only would Christmas shop from the day after Thanksgiving to Christmas eve. But then it hit me if I shopped between Halloween and Thanksgiving instead I would be done and have time for all of the other wonderful things the Christmas season has to offer. Think for a moment about the Christmas parties, plays, and all the special events. Think of baking cookies, finishing crafts, decorating you house, decorating a Christmas tree, wrapping presents....ALL without having to squeeze in shopping, crowds, icy roads, and the stress that comes with making sure everyone is checked off your list. So the first step? Grab your list, or if you have not yet made one, make a list. And keep this list in a notebook or somewhere you can find it each year. Hard work and preparation now till Thanksgiving make for a more enjoyable Christmas for everyone!
