Free Holiday Bootcamp!
I am interrupting my usual blog posts to do this special bootcamp for my mom friends!
You have the option to read each day separately for the next week and spread it out, OR read through in one day and take the ideas that will best help you!
This Bootcamp is for you if you need help with organizing some basics before Christmas arrives. I find that the more we moms can tackle and streamline before Christmas, the more money we can save, the better we feel emotionally and physically, and therefore we can be more present with our families!
Happy day, mamas!! Here is Day 2 of getting ready for Christmas and feeling less stressful and more happy!
You'll want to tackle this easily by 1. getting rid of toys the kids no longer play with (or just throw around the house for no stupid reason), 2. Getting a few bins out and throwing toys in them for storage or the garage (don't forget to label them).
That's it! This is such an awesome way to make room for the Christmas toys that are coming. Now you'll have room for them and can rotate between garage toys and new toys in a few months!
Comment below and let me know when you've tackled this task! <3 Don't forget- you can tag mom friends and get them in on this fun little holiday bootcamp!
It's Day 3 of your Holiday Busy Mom Bootcamp! I am beyond excited to tell you this little trick to save you money! Here we go...
Don't fall into the trap of buying holiday dish sets! Here's why: Those little holiday sets are so enticing in Target and Macy's, and Pinterest has you thinking that you will be the most fashionable holiday mom ever if you invest. But here is why you should say "no!" to these every year: because you will be storing them for 364 days. For storage issues only, I steer clear.
Check out all the cool ways you can take your every day dishware and dress it up with napkins and a centerpiece! The main point about this day's post is to get really thoughtful about what you buy BEFORE you buy it, instead of filling your house with more clutter <3
This is my favorite day of the challenge, and I sincerely hope this practice changes your life like it has mine! Around the #holidays, it is especially ideal to keep a task list. If you are using paper lists, stop that right now! Download a task app from your App Market on your phone and simplify your life, and always have your task list with you from now on! (my personal favorite task app is Google Keep on my Android!)
Create a new task sheet and jot down all of the people, plus a budgeted amount. If you stick to this list, and commit to it, you could potentially save hundreds of $$ this #Christmas! <3
Don't forget to tag mom friends who need to save money!
Your Day 6 Challenge is more for your personal health overall! How cool are these metabolism stats? Drinking water and staying hydrated and healthy will help you be happier and help withstand holiday stress.
I am a water drinker, friends! How about you? What other healthy tactics do you use to have a healthier, happier life?
You made it to Day 7 of the Busy Moms Holiday Bootcamp! I hope this was as fun for you, as it's been for me! Thanks for spending the week with me, and treating yourself kindly! I can't wait to post later today and shout out those of you who were apart of this challenge.
For a free gift, head to www.jessicalwelch.com, and sign up to get my FREE meal guide. It is a gift to you, and my most-requested item from the moms in my life. I no longer count calories, and instead created this simple, weekly guide with my husband to help me simplify life without dreading counting calories ever again.
Thanks for sticking with me this week. If you want another challenge like this, please let me know in the comments! :)
Xoxo,
Jess
