Here we are at the beginning of another New Year…2019. I’m not sure if you were ready for it or not, but I felt like 2018 just kind of rushed its way through. It just seemed like it was over before it really had a chance to get started. However, that’s probably just because I’m a mom. It seems like every year goes by a little quicker than the last now that I have kids. (If you’re a mom, then I’m sure you agree!)
Since we are at the beginning of another New Year, I thought this was an appropriate time to give a few tips for how you can get the year started off right (for you and your family).
Organize holiday decorations as you put them away. If you haven’t packed up all of your holiday decorations yet, then take the time to organize them while you pack them away in the attic for next year. Spend a little money on a few nice totes to store various holiday décor in. Don’t forget to label everything! You’ll be amazed how much better you will feel once you’ve got your holiday decorations stored away, knowing they are organized! Have the house cleaned. For me, one of the most irritating things about the holidays is how disorderly my house gets during those two hectic months. If you feel the same way, then do yourself a big favor and hire someone to come and clean your house once the kids go back to school. Even if you don’t want a housecleaner to come on a regular basis, hiring one to come at the beginning of the New Year is a great way to get off on the right foot. This is especially true if you are like me and function better…
