In order to make things as simple as possible, it is important to have a realistic idea of your goals for the holidays and set a timeline for which to accomplish them. Planning ahead is key.
One way to do this is by completing today’s Countdown to Christmas Challenge. You will first need to print or copy calendar pages. You can use your own, or help yourself to the following templates from ListPlanIt.com for September*, October*, November*, and December*. Three-hole punch each page and place them in the front of your holiday planner.
There are several holidays and special occasions between now and Christmas. You can find a list of them here. Be sure to mark them on your calendar pages. Here at 100 Days to Christmas, we will be figuring these days into our planning.
ListPlanIt wants to give three Print Memberships to 100 Days readers. Also, we are giving away five 100 Days to Christmas 2011 eBooks. You have several ways to enter to win :
