By the end of October or maybe the end of December... lol.
Make one list of the gifts you need to buy and carry it around with you. Try and purchase one gift every time you are out shopping (don't forget gifts for teachers, babysitters and others that have helped you this year).
Begin to cook double of one meal each week. Good meals to try are chili, pulled chicken or pork, beef stew (all can be done in a crock pot and then frozen). I haven't done this one yet.
Get tickets to holiday events--seats for seasonal favorites fill up fast.
Arrange travel, hotels and boarding for pets. if you travel?!?! not me =-)
Good Luck !!!
