November 9th 2014

Yesterday was so much fun but for every day of fun there is always a day of payment.
Thankfully I had very little I had to do today, so it was track pants and rest.




However it does put me behind a bit for the six week planning.

BUT! that is why there is a tomorrow.




I did manage to get some of the purchases put away and make some of the kits up. Short day today to pay for an extremely long night.


8 more things you can do to improve you holidays.















  • During the year, collect antique linen napkins and handkerchiefs to wrap goody gifts in
  • Take pictures after you finished decorating your home. Not only will they be fun to look at, but you will make decorating easier in coming years
    (this year I am going to photograph my heritage ornaments and tell the story in a photobook for each of them)
  • Try to finish your shopping by December 10th
    (Before WalMart opens 24 hours?????????????)
  • Try to have all your packages mailed by December 12th
  • Before going to bed every night of the Christmas season, ask yourself, "whose life did I make brighter today?"
  • Volunteer as a family to work in a soup kitchen or homeless shelter
  • Remind newlyweds to save an item from their wedding to use as a treasured ornament
    (even something as simple as corks from the wine bottles)
  • Send a Christmas basket to a college student. Include a Christmas cd or dvd, a few decorations for their room, Christmas cards, stamps and a red pen
    (love this idea for our recent empty nesters)

    Good night
