Did you feel it when you woke up this morning? The “holiday season” machine has been fired up. No longer Halloween – it’s time for the onslaught of catalogs, shopping, and decorating. Oh, and gift wrapping, parties, baking ….. all while trying to keep that smile and holiday spirit! I’m such a preparer that I’ve been thinking over my gift-giving list for a couple of weeks now, matching ideas with people. (Please, do not tell me how your presents, are bought, wrapped and tagged – I’m trying to smile!) My goal is to be “creative” this year, which for me means using gift cards as a last resort rather than a plan. I’m also going to remind myself that I do love Christmas, and even a sprinkling of snow.
How are you preparing for the holidays?
