This is very simple and basic. Question : Are you stressed because shopping for the Christmas Holiday's is giving you delivery anxiety? "Will I get it in time, still have to wrap it.... "Oh No! It's only 3 weeks 'till Christmas!" It does not have to be this way!!! It maybe to too late to change this for this years' gift planning... BUT Start changing your strategy for 2006 and every year thereafter. Start shopping for your gifts in JANUARY. Plan to have all your gift shopping done by the end of October. You'll have plenty of time to wrap and while everyone else is rushing, you can look forward to the gift giving ceremonies and sip you favorite Holiday drink. Start in January, make a list of all the people you like to give a gift and don't forget ART, Paintings, especially ORIGINAL art, makes one of the best gifts. What is more unique & personal. Not to forget, It may just turnout to be a treasure down the road. So here it is, Ginette's simple shopping advise for the Holidays. Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukah. All the best in 2006! Ginette Callaway
