Hi Everyone,

I've just joined the forum and thought I'd come and introduce myself.

I'm a Mum living in Perth, Australia. I have two gorgeous girls (one is two and the other is almost three months old) and am currently on maternity leave. I've always loved Christmas and am a bit of a planning freak. Not so good at actually following through with my plans though hehe.

I'm hoping that by joining a forum I can get some motivation to follow through and be less stressed when it comes to December. I did the Houseworks plan last year, and it worked quite well for the plannng part. The housework part kind of fell to the side though.

This year I'm going to be doing the Holiday Grand Plan since I'll have so much more time while I'm off work.

I can't wait to get my notebooks sorted out (I already have a house notebook and a Christmas notebook, but they're in need of a makeover) and getting stuck in to holiday planning. Loving that this site has countdowns for other holidays as well.

Well, that's all for me for the moment. Looking forward to getting to know you all. Will be great to be able to talk to people who are similiarly obsessed with holiday planning - I'm sure my husband is sick of me going on about it!!

Have a fantastic Monday!!

Sarah

What perfect timing -- to join the Magical Holiday Home Family while you are on maternity leave! More time to read all the great threads! AND -- if you are interested, for the first time ever -- we are trying a SUMMER Holiday Grand Plan! (Of course -- that would be a WINTER Plan - for you in Australia!) Check it out and see if it might interest you! Everyone gets to make the plan individual -- to fit THEIR own Summer (Winter)!!!
