It is hard to believe that another year has gone by and once again we are beginning our count down to Christmas.

There are lots of Christmas preparations that can be done well in advance and it is time now to start making your lists.

Are you someone who enjoys making homemade gifts? It is never TOO early for that.

You could start drafting your family newsletter and it can be signed, sealed and delivered by the middle of December.

This is a great time to make decisions about Christmas projects and crafts that you would like to do with your children or grandchildren. Your stress level is much lower now than it will be in the last days before Christmas. NOW it might be fun to spend some time together making gifts, cookies for the freezer or perhaps some beautifully handpainted Christmas wrap.

If you know you will be entertaining over the holiday season, perhaps you can put your children or grandchildren to work designing placecards for the dinner table. There are lots of great Christmas craft resources available at the library or on-line.

Anticipating that you will be getting your Christmas decorations out soon, this is a perfect time to clear away unnecessary clutter. Be ruthless and toss......into the garbage, recycling and donations bags!!
