"Organized Life" November 2009

 

Focusing on Faith & Family
 
In this month's issue we'll be talking about family. With Thanksgiving and Christmas right around the corner, chances are family will be coming around. 
 
We'll be talking about some fun ways to make your Thanksgiving table talk fun. From  family prayer time to traveling games and tips,  your family will surely be entertained, especially if you plan on hitting the road for Thanksgiving.
 
As always, we have a great Savvy Way to Save idea. "Get Organized!" will be directing you to some great deals the day after Thanksgiving, so watch your inbox for information and coupons for Black Friday.

Lastly, we have recently added to our website the ability to view past newsletters in case you've missed any articles, tips, or coupons. Just go to the home page of our website.
 
And don't forget to follow us on Facebook and Twitter for new, daily information.

Organized
Christmas 
 
Here at Get Organized! we are focused on the true meaning of Christmas, and with that comes many tasks that still need to be completed. Planning ahead is key, and we have just the site to help you out through this season.
 
OrganizedChristmas.com is a website with tons of pre-made charts and forms. One of the many things this site offers is a  Christmas Count down calendar that lays out everything you would need to accomplish over a 6 week period, giving you the entire month of December stress and worry free.
 
Another way to get organized for Christmas is by using SendOutCards.com. This site makes creating and sending Christmas cards a breeze. (They are actual greeting cards, not e-cards.) You can pick from over 12,000 cards, and add pictures, cute fonts, colors, and so much more right from your computer, all for a very low cost!  
 
You can even create one card and send it to everyone on your list. The card company actually prints, stuffs, stamps, and addresses the cards for you. The great thing is that you can have this service all year long and use it for any occasion! If you own a business, it's a great marketing tool to keep in touch with your clients or just login and send a card to a friend for their birthday without ever having to leave home.
 
Holiday Travel
Games and Tips
 
 
Although driving may be cheaper, it does take more effort to pack and prepare. One of the most fun and hardest tasks is keeping the kids happy during times such as these, and no one wants to travel with a war going on in the back seat.
 
Prepare ahead of time some games to keep the excitement building. Consider going to the Dollar Store, purchase a few toys, wrap them up in newspaper, and tell the kids that at certain points on the trip they can open a package.
 
Give them a map so they can follow along and navigate. Overall, it's a great chance to teach them how to read maps as it will help them later in life.
 
For older kids play the ABC game, finding letters on billboards, license plates, and road signs. After you have exchausted the ABC game try finding how many flags you can find. And don't forget that stores like Target or Walmart have lots of magnetic travel games that kids and adults can play.

Table prayingAround the Table
Giving thanks to the Lord should not be a once a year time card we punch in and out. Prayer with the Lord is just like talking to a friend - It's a constant fellowship all year long, where we express our thankfulness, desires, seek direction, and humble ourselves.
 
James 5:16 "...The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."

Christmas is just around the corner! 
 
If you have someone that needs an extra pair of hands to get their home or life back in order, consider a gift certificate from "Get Organized!". 
 
Organizing Services are not just a luxury, for many it's a life saver as it reduces stress, saves money, and just makes life better.
 
Pitch in together with family members or just make it a gift that will cover an entire year of special occassions.   
 
Whatever the need, give a unique and creative gift that is both wanted and needed!
