The “Ease Into Christmas” Planner

ree

Goal: Keep the joy front and center while finishing the essentials without rushing or worrying.


SERIOUSLY, IF YOU TRY TO DO EVERYTHING ON THE TO DO LIST IT WILL BE OVERWHELMING.


Here's a day-by-day to get you moving in the right direction.


Check off each day as you complete it to your satisfaction.


(☐) December 15 – Stocking Stuffers Made Simple

Pick up (or order) a few easy, cheerful fillers:

  • Candy canes

  • Travel lotions

  • Mini notebooks

  • Socks

  • Bookmarks

  • Fun ink pens or markers

  • Mass Market Paperbacks fit right

  • An ice scraper for the car

No overthinking. Just sweet, useful little treats.


(☐) December 16 – A Quick Christmas Check-In

Reach out to one person you love but haven’t talked to in a while.

A short text or a quick call can warm both hearts.(And if you’re feeling extra festive, send them their “Festive Alter Ego” name from the game on the blog earlier this month.)


(☐) December 17 – Freezer Friends Day

Make one meal that freezes well, like chili or a casserole.

Tuck it into the freezer for a busy night between now and New Year’s.

Future you will be mighty thankful.


(☐) December 18 – Gentle Gift Wrapping

Turn on a Christmas playlist and wrap three to five gifts… no more.

Just enough to make progress without feeling like you’ve run a marathon.


(☐) December 19 – Cozy Corner Reset

Freshen up one cozy spot in your home:

  • Fluff the throw blanket

  • Add a candle

  • Change out a pillow

Make it the place you’ll sip cocoa or read a chapter tonight.


(☐) December 20 – The “Almost There” Tidy

Fifteen minutes, tops.

Sweep through the main spaces:

kitchen,

dining table,

living room

and put stray things back where they belong.

You’ll feel ten pounds lighter. YAY!


(☐) December 21 – Sunday Spirit Catch-Up

Today is for soaking up:

  • A slow morning

  • A walk in the cold air

  • A moment of gratitude

  • A little prayer or quiet reflection

Let your heart settle into the season before the final stretch.


Did you check off each day as you completed it?

WELL DONE

It all started with a desire to write one book to help one busy gal through one bad day. Over forty-five books later my dream is the same. I hope to whisk you away in a story that helps you relax and regain balance, while tickling a memory, making you smile, and interrupting any worries with a reminder that there is always hope. Thank you for taking this journey with me.
                                                                       
   Hugs and happy reading,
                                                                                                                                                     Nancy
