Tuesday Tips and Tricks: Celebrating (not surviving) the Holiday Season- Christmas Cards

Okay, I KNOW that it is October 2. Yes, We are already talking about Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's self defense really. I have to make a plan... and a schedule or I will wake up the week of thanksgiving wondering where the year went.

Last week, we made a plan. I asked you to take a moment and think about what memories you want to make this year. What do you want your holidays to look like? How do you want them to be remembered?

I made my list and set it aside. When I went back to it, I realized that the things I WANTED to do during the months of October, November, December, and January and the time, energy, and funds I actually HAVE at my disposal during the next 4 months simply do not work out.

So I pared down my list of want to's. I may do this again before it's over. We will see.

This week, I am looking over the things that are time consuming, but not time sensitive. These are things I can do now and set aside to be put to use later.

First on the list...
Christmas cards. I have completely gotten away from sending cards for a couple of reasons, the main one being POOR PLANNING on my part! Of course, I justify my lack of discipline with Social media... I mean, thanks to social media, all my people know what we've been up to all year, right? If there was ever any question, they could just stop by here and take advantage of my word vomit, right? LOL

So seriously, this week.... Christmas cards. Who needs to know you love them?

Get your address list together. That's your goal for this week. Who do you want to send Christmas wishes to? WHAT do you want your Christmas cards to say?

Make your list! Check it twice!

Big hugs!
