Your Personal Assistant for December {organize}

As the New Year Approaches and everyone is making plans and resolutions, Tip Junkie is here to help as Your Personal Assistant. Take a day and really plan and organize your schedule. Here are some of the things to do!

Personal Assistant

1. Check birthdays for the month, buy cards & presents, get them ready to mail or deliver. If you have a child’s birthday this month, plan it and get out the invites.

2. Let’s start the month off right and make a list of the things that are causing you added stress. Make a list of the big ones as well as the little ones. Is something in the house that’s broken, is there an insurance issue you need to take care of, do you need an extra trash can upstairs to help keep things tidy?

Once you’ve thought it out and made your list, plan a day this week as your “ongoing problem day” and finally resolve those issues that need to be resolved. You’ll be glad that you did!

3. Print out your free Daily/Weekly/Monthly/Annual cleaning checklist. And if you need it, you can also print out a free Stain Removal Guide. I also have several amazing Chore Charts for Kids that you can print out.

Fun Traditions to Create Memories for your kids:

New Years Ideas:

4. Clear schedule for book club, girls night out, BUNCO (have you seen this amazing Bunco Party Idea with FREE Printables?), and other rotating activities. Make sure you have child care, your food assignment, etc. Here’s how to start a dinner club.

5. If you are doing a food storage, time to check the schedule and buy next on the list. Don’t forget to put some cash in there as well.

6. Change AC house filter.

7. Write one grandparent a letter, artwork, or card.

8. Plan Mommy/Son or Daddy/Daughter dates.

9. Plan a date night with your man. Swap kids with a friend or schedule the babysitter in advance. If you need some fun dates, check out or How to Date Your Spouse ideas over on the TJ Community.

Family Events Coming Up:

10. Winter can be such a busy time of the year. As you organize yourself this month, look ahead to the New Year. This way you can stay ahead of the game and things won’t sneak by.

  • What holiday school parties are you in charge of?
  • What winter birthday’s do you need to make/buy gifts for? {They sneak up on you – so get them now}
  • Are you going to host a Christmas party? If so, for Adults or Families?
  • Are you going to host a New Years party this year?

Finish Planning Christmas

11. Finalize plans for Christmas, where you’re going to stay, who’s family to visit, travel arrangements, etc.
