Welcome to this week's tips
Hi Everyone,

I drove in wind and rain to Indiana to see my cousin's new baby. Isn't she adorable!

We are almost done making our annual Thanksgiving cards (we do these instead of Christmas cards because it's not as busy of a time). And here's a printable gratitude list I made in case you missed it in the last newsletter: http://www.mysimplerlife.com/printable-gratitude-list

Someone was asking about my holiday plan in the accountability group so I thought I'd post here as well: http://www.mysimplerlife.com/simple-holiday-plan-annual-plan-bundle
 
Weekly Simplicity Tips
  1. Breathe 5 breaths between your tasks so you aren't running from one thing to another.

  2.  Forget about perfection, quirks are more interesting any way.

  3. Decide to eat really healthy this season, so you can enjoy indulging at get togethers.

  4. Have the kids plan a week's worth of clothes at a time, using sweater organizers in the closet.

  5. Research a solution for something that isn't working in your life.

  6. If you are feeling overwhelmed, release a commitment.

  7. Visit a craft show or make crafts with friends.

Get the Simple Holiday Plan PLUS the Simple Annual Plan

Do you want a holiday plan that doesn’t have you do a million things you just don’t have time for?

I’ve tried the holiday plans that are online. But, I never finished them. Having simplified my Christmas I didn’t use many of the parts of those plans. And they just made me feel guilty.

Would you like a simpler holiday plan ?

I created a plan that I use to keep my holidays organized without overwhelming me.

Plan includes:

  • a checklist for each week
  • simple steps to take to create the holiday you want
  • short cuts and simplifications for many holiday tasks
  • questions to help you decide what is important to you and your family
  • worksheets and forms
