Ignore my post above about the stamps. They were last years stamps so you would also have to buy the 2 cent stamps to make up for the price difference. However, holiday stamps go on sale tomorrow in the U.S.!! I pre-ordered them from the UPS store online.

- Thread starter Gingerbug

So far so good! :skate: Hoping the next few weeks are as easy for me, really will need all the help I can muster this year (new full time job, home under renovation....) :slap:
Wow, HouseElf! Good changes for you,though!
I can't wait to set up my desk for Christmas tomorrow! That should get some looks from DH when he gets home from work!(heehee) :nana:

So far - I'm right on task! I love this countdown because it helps to get me prepared and ready for the holidays in stages instead of lumping all kinds of things together 2 weeks before the big day.
I haven't seen this posted anywhere else - but I wanted to let all XM subscribers know that as of November 1st Holly will start playing on channel 103. I am so excited I could pop!

Week one was a breeze for me, especially since I had done most of the tasks already. I shampooed my carpet a few months ago and it's still in pretty good shape, just a spot clean here and there. I also am doing very well with keeping my apartment clean. After going through the spruce-up exercise, there won't be much for me to do except take all the fall decorations down when it's time to decorate for Christmas...hoping that I keep up the pace I have right now. The other only thing I need to do is purchase postage stamps for my Christmas cards.
Everything is done except the stamps-They come out on Thursday. And I need to get to work on doing something on my home spruce up list! :huh:
Got my stamps Monday (the 29th) and they are already on the cards! I am only sending out about 40 so it was easy to do all the stamps at once. I will address them 1/5 at a time, though. Trying to stick to the countdown since this is my first year in the countdown.
ooh qltmrkt I like the idea of putting the stamps on the envelopes in advance!!! I am definitely going to do that too.
I ordered my stamps by mail and they came today-I will stamp my
already addressed cards tonight-ordering by mail sure beats standing in line at my post office-WOMAN
