I've been so focused on this trip with making plans and ADR's, etc. I've been just

and

looking at my countdown. This weekend it dawned on me what all that I need to get done in order for me not to be a raving lunatic right before or right after our December trip. Everything needs to be done
before because I get back home 10 days before Christmas.
So here's my list in no particular order:
Get out Fall decorations
Host Thanksgiving dinner for family
Rake leaves, winterize yard and plant bulbs
Put away Fall decorations and decorate for Christmas
Make, address, and send Christmas cards
Make Christmas shopping list - this is a big deal because we exchange with about 30 relatives.
Shop, wrap, and send Christmas gifts
Christmas baking and freeze
Paint scrapbooking/sitting room
Paint bookcase that DH made for me (

honey)
Finish up some of my various scrapbooks
Yikes! What's your to-do list before the December trip?
