Wow! 2009 is already here. Where did the time go? I hope everyone had a safe & happy holiday. Now it's time to gear up for the new year. I know, it's early, but spring is close & summer is right behind it. You should start thinking about what you want your decor to look like for the summer. If you prepare for it now, it won't be as hectic setting up when the time comes. Just imagine yourself laying by the pool in the hot sun or playing outdoor games with family & friends. It won't be long. Just be patient.
Don't overload yourself w/ putting all your winter stuff away at once. Pace yourself. Put it away little by little. Reward yourself w/ little breaks after one chore is done, then do another. Make it a family thing. If everyone pitches in, it will be done that much quicker. A family that works together, plays together.
Look for after Christmas sales. That way, you can have a lot of things done for Christmas next year, plus it's a great way to save money. You can also buy summer things now because they are off season. Everyone likes to save money.
Another great idea is to start putting loose change in a piggy bank. It's a good way to save for summer camping trips & vacation spending money. Ask the kids or grandkids what they want to do this summer. If you have an idea now, it's something that everyone can work & save towards.
Any ideas? Please let us know & we'll try to spread the word!
