Day 1

Hiya all!
Just a quick note to let you know that I will be having a baby this week so for the next week or two may be a little slow with replying to emails and questions. Still send them, you just won’t have as speedy reply.

This Month we will be focusing on preparing for Christmas.

IT’S BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS: This next month we are going to get ready for Christmas so your home is organised for guests, your day will be panic free because you aren’t quite ready, and saving you from doing it all in the last minute.

Today your task is: List! List! List!
The best way to be focused on a task and be organised with it, is to make lists. So today, pull out your notepaper and a pen (if it doesn’t work, throw it away!) and start making lists:
Today’s lists are: Christmas presents : – who for? What to buy? Where to buy it? Budget?
This way you can cut down your “spontaneous spending” and also have a plan of what shops to visit so you aren’t wasting time drifting from shop to shop.
Christmas cards: Who for? Have their been additions to the families? Is your address book up-to-date?

Your focus room for today is: BATHROOMS:

OBSCURE JOB FOR THE DAY: Do you have guests coming to stay over the holidays? Is the bedding fresh and ready for use? If not, give everything a good wash and add a few drops of lavender oil into the machine to give the bedding a nice scent. Fold and put away ready to make up the guest room closer to the time.

Have a terrific day!!
