Set up a relaxing playlist on your phone comprised of your favorite songs (holiday or otherwise). When the day gets to be too much, pop in your headphones, turn up your music, and let everyone else manage themselves for a song or two. You'll feel better, and the day will run smoother than you ever thought possible. Ready, set, PLAY!
Tape a sheet of paper to your fridge. Anytime you think of something you need to do for the holidays, jot it down. It's an easy way to make a to-do list, and nothing will get left out! Happy organizing!
Over 40,000 shoppers attend some holiday extravaganzas. If you must hit the stores, plan to arrive early (even before the doors open). You'll be ready for your best shopping experience possible! Conversely, try for an online holiday. You won't be able to touch before you buy, but you'll save on gas, parking, and aggravation!
Thanksgiving is in four days. November is also Banana Pudding Month. Start planning your pudding now. Not traditional enough for Thanksgiving dinner? This is your year to start! Simmer, layer, and enjoy!!
Avoid those last minute stressors. Where's your pet spending the holidays while you're out of town? Why not buy your holiday meal rather than cook it? Schedule airport pickups and dropoffs now so there's no last-minute scramble! You will have a successful holiday this year!
