Here are a few seasonal tasks that may slip your mind:

• Make your New Year's Eve plans!  The best events tend to sell out early.
• If you plan to go to any fancy parties, make sure you have the proper attire.  If necessary, purchase something new or take smething you have to the dry cleaner.  (Don't forget accessories!)
• Make sure you have batteries and memory disks for holiday photos and video.
• Find your stash of holiday music or make holiday playlists.
• Begin collecting and reviewing charitable requests.  You'll want to make your donations before December 31st to take tax deductions this year.
• If you have to ship gifts, lay in your shipping supplies (boxes, bubble wrap, tape, etc.).
• Check your toolbox to make sure you have a hammer, nails, screwdrivers, tape measure, level, etc. so you'll have what you need for decorating.
