Getting ready for<br />
the festive season<br />
Christmas means a lot of things to a lot of<br />
people. For some it is a religious celebration,<br />
for others a chance to gather with family and<br />
celebrate. Whatever Christmas means to you,<br />
there are many ways to celebrate – from the full<br />
grandeur of baked ham and turkey with all the<br />
trimmings or a picnic on the beach with the ones<br />
you love.<br />
For some, Christmas can be a stressful time<br />
of year, but there are ways to minimise this and<br />
spread the workload, so everyone can enjoy the<br />
day.<br />
Here are some ideas to help you get through the<br />
festive season.<br />
Create order in your home<br />
Start preparations early, if you are hosting<br />
everyone at your house, don’t leave it all to the<br />
last minute. Start the spring clean up now so<br />
when it comes to the days leading into the holiday<br />
season you are not rushing around – making you<br />
stressed and exhausted.<br />

Tackling one room at a time is a good way<br />
to purge and get organised. Sorting through<br />
wardrobes and cupboards and getting rid of<br />
anything you haven’t used in the past year. Having<br />
all the rooms organised means there will also be<br />
space for those coming to stay during this busy<br />
time.<br />
Once you’ve dusted and vacuumed shut the<br />
doors and just air out the room a few days before<br />
your guests arrive. A nice towel placed at the end<br />
of the bed and a small floral arrangement from the<br />
garden can also add a nice welcoming touch.<br />
Share the food load<br />
We have between 25 to 30 people for Christmas<br />
most years, but our family has got smart. The host<br />
divvies up the food between each family, spreading<br />
the cost and the work.<br />
About four weeks before the big day, we send<br />
out a food allocation of what each person brings.<br />
Normally the parents get the turkey and ham<br />
with the offspring in charge of vegetables and<br />
