If youve been to any store lately youve seen that the holiday decorations have hit the stores. Its the time of year that puts everyone in a good mood until the time that the family arrives on your doorstep. Then of course, the rush is on to get it all done in time. If youre anything like me and my family, there are always last minute trips to the store to get everything that is needed for the dinner and the delivery of presents.
Now is the time to plan out your whole event. You should know now whether you are traveling to a relatives for the holiday or even just for dinner. Its a good time to start planning your menus and your presents for the people on your list.
Here are a few things to make your holidays run a bit smoother:
1. Write a list of each person who is to receive a present. If you need to draw names, make it happen via email this week. Then select a budget for each person and draw the cash out and put it in envelopes. Make a vow to stay within the budget youve set.
2. Start by perusing the catalogs. Its an easier way to shop. There are so many catalogs on line now so shopping on line will help you stay away from that crazy holiday...
