My goal is to be finished shopping before Dec.1st. I then have the rest of the month to wrap, and plan.
We do a 5 days of Christmas thing, because we have so many family/friends we want to get together with.
I come up with meal plans, games or crafts, something exciting besides the presents.
It's loads of fun.
I can't do most of my shopping until I know what is going to be on sale.
