Well, it's that time of year! It's November! If you ask me, time is flying by. What I'm here to tell you is that before you know it, it will be December. I'm using this article to warn you that it may be a good idea to start your Christmas planning now. When I mean start your Christmas planning, I mean start planning dates for parties, outfits for celebrations, decorations, and most importantly Christmas shopping! Think about it, the whole month of December we are going to parties, giving gifts, and doing fun things. Let's make November the month of preparation.

Don't know where to start? Start by making a calendar. Make goals for yourself to accomplish things each week. Make a list of all the people you need to buy presents for. Look on Amazon, Groupon, and coupons online before you head to the mall for the presents you want to buy people. Set aside money each week so that you have money for December festivities. Take your Christmas pictures early to send to your friends and family. Text all your friends and pick a day more than two weeks in advance to have a secret Santa party so that everyone can take off of work and go! As for dates, it's most important to call your grandma and parents and plan your day to make Christmas cookies so that you can eat them the rest of the month of December. Another date to keep in mind is the day to get your Christmas tree with your family. It's one the most important days in December.

I promise the more you plan ahead in November, the more enjoyable and fun your month of December will be. Instead of being stressed out during Christmas and missing out on parties and fun things because you're too busy, you will be happy and at ease. Hopefully this article helped and you can enjoy your November and December.
