Christmas Countdown Begins the Last Week of October

[SparkleNana]

In August, didn't the last week in October seem like it was ten years away?

Now.... it is pretty soon!

That will be a busy week - with Halloween on Friday this year.

It's amazing how quickly that time flies! Here in Canada, Thanksgiving is coming up this weekend and then Halloween is just around the corner. :hat:

Here in Australia where we celebrate neither Halloween or Thanksgiving it is a clear run to December 25th. :skate:

I always switch to the CC when it starts. I do all of my holiday prep with the CC. and most of my holiday cleaning with the HGP.

I have to get on the ball, I introduced a friend of mine to the CC 2 years ago and she needs me to print her the new calendar pages. :grin:

Oh, it is going to be here before we know it!

Time always flies for me during this part of the year. I will probably end up doing both the HGP and the CC this year - taking the bits from both that fit what I can handle.

I can't wait! But yet I can, because I have so much to get done before then.

Its a real problem, I have! :haha:

(Oh, yeah, I've had too much caffeine today.)

The Christmas Countdown is always welcome to me. When it arrives, I have usually done as much declutering and deep cleaning as I am going to do before the holidays. (Not that everything is finished. It's just that I am finished.)

When the Christmas Countdown arrives, I am ready to concentrate on getting all ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I like to have as much finished as possible before Thanksgiving. So I can concentrate on enjoying Christmas events in December. (And keeping up with routines. (Cooking, laundry, dishes, finances, and whatever pops up.)

Until the Christmas Countdown, I seem to be more engaged in declutering, deep cleaning, gardening, and other projects. The last week in October, I switch the emphasis to holiday prep. How about you?
