HGP -- Week 11 -- Garage and Storage Areas

Oh wow has this been going for almost 3 month now? How are you all doing?

This week we are in the dungeons of our home -- the garage and other storage areas. And boy do I need to be doing this here. Our garage has become the dumping ground for the house. We have boxes and bags full of things just stuffed out there. I figure it will take us more than a week to get through it, unless we do it clean house style and take everything out. That may happen it makes for a LONG day, but then it is done.

Holiday Prep

-- Make one batch of Holiday Goodies.

-- Make one extra meal for freezer again labeled HOLIDAY MEAL.

-- Buy two canned food items from menus (get 2 of each item, one to use and one to donate to food drive).

-- Buy 1/8th of TO BUY gifts. Save all receipts, note return policy before buying. Ask for gift boxes.

-- Wrap and label packages. If needing to ship, get some shipping boxes now and store packages in them.

-- Work at least 1 hour a day on homemade gifts.

-- Review and revise menus and other plans.

-- Plan table setting.

-- Plan centerpiece, make as much as possible now (or order it from florist).

-- Reserve any items needed to be borrowed or rented.

-- Get everyone's holiday clothes purchased/cleaned/pressed.

Hope everyone has a great and productive week!
