Since Thanksgiving is this Thursday, it's a light week on the Christmas preparations. It's more important to celebrate the holidays that are here than to prepare for the ones that are coming.

But if you are looking for something to occupy your time while you watch football or try to digest that third piece of pie:

• Keep working on any crafting you have yet to complete. I find crocheting while watching football highly entertaining.
• Keep working on your cards. You don't want to mail them before December 2nd, but it's more fun if you do a bit at a time.
• Find your Christmas music or make a new playlist.
• Make sure you have your gift lists finished. I find that people give good gift hints just before      slipping into a turkey coma.

Most of all, enjoy Thanksgiving with those you love!
