The holiday season is one of the most stressful times of the year. From October to December, your days will be filled with decorating your home with pumpkins, turkeys, and reindeers, shopping for your family and friends, and reflecting on the year to develop New Year's resolutions.

Regardless of being out of the house eleven hours of the day for work, spending time with my family, meeting my weekly fitness goals, and having time to myself, I knew I wanted to make the holiday season simple and easy. It has been the smoothest transition from November to December, and I couldn't be happier to have my house decorated and presents wrapped.

Here are my four tips to come out of the holiday stress-free:

1. Plan ahead.
2. Shop online.
3. Use local resources.
4. Set a budget.

Plan ahead.


After Thanksgiving, I created a list with each person and pet I was shopping for. I wrote out several gift ideas, then made a final list of gifts I knew I would purchase over the next two weeks.

Shop online.


Shopping online helped me save time and money. I purchased almost all my gifts on Black Friday, and completed my shopping in the first week of December. You will find excellent deals online compared to retail stores from the comfort of your own home. Ensure product reliability by reading online reviews.

Use local resources.


There are many small businesses that are ready to support you during the holidays. Prior to lighting up your home exterior, you may need lawn care, pest control, or roof repair in Orlando.

Set a budget.


Starting the new year in debt is a common issue. Overcome that issue by setting a gift budget. I spent less than $900 on seven people and four pets. The most expensive gift was $280. I enjoy shopping for a large quantity of budget-friendly items than one, expensive gift.

The holiday season is meant to be the most wonderful time of the year. Check out roof repair Orlando and stay tuned for future posts about staying organized for a holly jolly Christmas.
