Ok, I am not going to lie...
I have writers block...
I used to be so witty and good at this!
I promised my first real blog since my Xanga days and all I can say is...
I have been sitting here with "Elementary" playing in the background and racking my brain to think of some way to say how important organizing your home well before Wednesday when you are trying to put together a Thanksgiving dinner and prepping to put up the Christmas Decor, dealing with the inlaws, and getting ready for Black Friday 12:01 a.m. crazy shopping; the holidays are stress filled enough; organizing for the holidays is just being prepaired for what you already know is going to happen...
As of this post you have... 7 days, 5 hours and 45 minutes. Not trying to scare you, but it's going to happen...
Oh and if I didnt scare you enough... Christmas is 40 days 5 hours and 45 minutes... yikes!
Tick Tock.. Tick Tock...
Let me help-
1. Shopping List for Turkey day
2. List of people you are getting presents for- SET A DOLLAR AMOUNT AND STICK TO IT; dont add money stresses post holidays. It IS the thought that counts, if its about money then they dont deserve a gift.
3. Schedule the photo for the family card
4. Amazon is a good thing.
5. Dont sweat the small things; if something doesn't go right, it will be a funny story to tell next holidays.
6. Holidays are supposed to be fun! Organize time to have fun; go ice skating, get hot chocolate, sleep in late, make a snowman, volunteer at a shelter, give to Toys for Tots, wear an ugly sweater, try roasting a chestnut on an open fire, put some rum in your egg nogg, send a card to the family member you haven't talked to in years... make your own list of things you want to do this year...
I guess my block lifted... get to it!
Tick Tock.. Tick Tock...

Random Christmas Picture for warm and fuzzies :0)
