i'd say they think i'm obsessed more than crazy! got everything sorted for the next birthday in Feb (which is close already!) but haven't seen anything that grabbed me yet for the next pair in June. although for this Christmas I wrapped and put away so early that I nearly lost one present (took a week of hunting for it to find it in the end!), so i think my home organisation can do with some improvement!!!:happyhear0

mine do im usually all done wrapped and cards written for xmas by october,i do this as i have daughters bday on 20th december and i hate to be rushed.also other daughters bday is 24th march so i tend to get alot of her pressies in sale after xmas.i do like to be organized i make my own cards so i tend to write lists of names dates and occasions and try to get them made in advance too.so much easier i hate rushing around i already have xmas wrap paper/tags etc put away for thsi xmas:xmastree:Is loving life right now,yes I am a soppy fool who believes in the simple things in life :xmastree:0

oh yeah - hubs thinks I'm nuts - started my xmas shopping today and have finished all female birthdays upto May.
Same as others tho - come November when I'm done and can afford a few little 'luxuries' for myself (ie buy my own xmas presents lol) everyone says 'youre so organised. Every Year - you'd think they'd have cottoned on by now - sigh

My husbands family think im nuts but as someone said earlier while they are all out on xmas eve getting prsents I will be tucked up with my hubby & kids watching a xmassy film.
Ive bought all the in-laws presents and most of my familys including my kids as they are young and will accept anything so far, Ive even got all this years birthday presents.
Ive gone one step ahead this year as Ive wrapped them all up and put them in the loft!!
I just hope I can stop buying soon, or maybe keep buying for 2009 lol!!0 -
Got a lot of mine (I think) but they're all in the spare room waiting to be sorted out into baskets/boxes of 'who's having what'.............I'll know better then how far I've got.
Haven't started on Christmas cards yet though..............lol Got some birthdays due in March/April /June/Aiugust then there's mothers day, easter, MIl's birthday as well, and as I make my own I'll do them first.Mary
I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !
