Things you need to do
before
Thanksgiving
Friend, we are 13 days out from Thanksgiving DayâŚ
Make sure the rest of this year & the holiday season doesn't catch you unprepared. This is the calm before the storm - use your time wisely! I believe in being prepared, but have a tendency to procrastinate so I really have to work at it. Here's my end of year to-do list.
Get it Calendared!
Send Save the Dates
Are you hosting a party in November, December, or January? You need to send your guests a save the date. People's calendars are already filling up into the new year.
1
Christmas is Close!
Schedule Christmas light installation
If you love your house to be decked out for Christmas, consider hiring a team to install/take down your lights this year. You are already busy enough, and time is precious!

Stay on Track.
Put your workouts
in the calendar.
The holidays are such a fun season but can come with some remorse if you go too far off the rails from your workout schedule. Calendar & commit to your work outs now so January 1st doesn't find you feeling like you've taken 10 steps back.

Special Menu Items?
Get Your Ingredients Now
If you have a special dish that calls for hard to find ingredients, you may want to order ahead or pick up now. With continued supply chain issues, get ahead of the âout of stockâ problem.
4
BUDGET, YALL.
Black Friday &
Cyber Monday
If you are not careful, you'll have some serious buyer's remorse if you overspend on Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Make a list of items that make sense to purchase on these special sale days, and
don't go crazy!
5
Get ahead on your errands.
Dry clean!
This errand is so annoying, but if you need a special item to be cleaned, pressed, or altered before a holiday party - now is the time to get it done. If you are hosting guests, you may need to have bedding laundered as well.
6
Be Runway Ready.
Rent the Runway?
Do you have a special event in December or for NYE? No time to shop? Dislike shopping? Consider getting a monthly membership for December from Rent the Runway. They have everything - formal gowns, cocktail, outdoor, ski, sequins, designer, casual.

Book your tickets and rental cars now.
Are you going somewhere for Christmas or NYE? Have you booked all your travel & accommodations? If you haven't, you'll likely pay through the nose or not have any options. Book now! Especially if you need a rental car.
