I am having surgery on the 30th so I need to get quite a bit accomplished before that:

- Finish all Christmas Shopping
- Cook many meals ahead so we can just reheat for dinners
- finish weatherproofing house
- send out Christmas cards (already signed)
- get all TDI paperwork in order
- beef up EF as it'll be a few weeks after the surgery before we see any TDI checks
- Decorate house for holidays
- Make and freeze Christmas cookie batters


I am sure I will find many more, but this stuff is "must do" for now!
