Ten Days Until Christmas

Are you still getting ready for the holidays? Don't worry - there's time to get it all done. Today's post includes a short list of "10 Day Countdown" tips from the "organizing pro" Marcia Ramsland. Heard her a few times on Moody Radios Midday Connection. Mark them on your calendar and you'll be ready in time. 


10 Days - Make your final Gift List and check it for any gaps.
9 Days – Finish shopping at one store or one on-line store.
8 Days – Wrap remaining gifts and send out final Christmas cards.
7 Days – Put up remaining decorations and enjoy a holiday movie.
6 Days – Bake a favorite Christmas cookie or nutbread recipe.
5 Days – Vacuum and give a quick cleaning to home.
4 Days – Plan your meals and bring in final groceries.
3 Days - Confirm Christmas Day plans with others.
2 Days – Read and reflect on the real meaning of Christmas in Luke 2.
1 Day – Celebrate with Christmas gifts, family, and a time of thankfulness.

It’s not too late! You can still pull together a successful holiday in 10 days. Keep at it!
