Anyone else who is trying to get things sorted out before Christmas?
It could mean a clearout, sorting through stuff, Kondoing a countertop, getting your hair and nails done, or just checking some items off a to-do list. It doesn't even need to be strictly S&B.

I've sorted out our last moving boxes today unopened since July, tried on my Christmas Day outfit (yay! it fits), done some cooking prep, and in the afternoon I need to go and get some parcels from the post office and wrap the presents. If I have time, painting my toenails would be great.

Checking in:

Yesterday I did a bit of a cull on my wardrobe and chucked a load of things I'd not worn in six months, and also got rid of about 50% of my tights, having replaced them with Falke ones in the HOF brand thingy. I also finally got round to getting DP to put up - I can't reach without faffing with a ladder - my summer pyjamas/loungewear so I have more space for my winter stuff. (That was far too late this year, but better late than never!)

Eyebrows threaded yesterday, hair being cut tomorrow.

Christmas eve I plan to have a bath and shave legs/arms/bikini area, then do finger and toenails. Christmas day outfit is already planned.

Sounds great Judy! Much more fun to get all this done together!

I also need DH to put away some storage boxes (the door of the cupboard where we keep them is stuck) and we still have the ladder in the living room! I have just decluttered the sofa table. Also need to deep condition my hair tonight or tomorrow morning. Have just taken out a ton of empty cardboard boxes, but forgot at least two boxes Confused

Just done nails. Had a bikini wax today (am 29 weeks pregnant so didn't want things getting too feral down there). Need to do toenails desperately so will do those tomorrow.
