You don't have to be superwoman to be calm at Christmas!

I am planning to go out this afternoon and do a mammoth grocery shop.  Before I do, however, I am going to clean out the fridge, do a quick check in the freezer and a quick clear out of a couple of shelves in my pantry.

This will not only help get all the purchases stored easily, but also will let me know if we already have some of any of the items the kids have written on that list.  Especially the males in the house, who do have a fairly serious case of male blindness (father and sons:).

Just before I attack that fridge, I wanted to let you know about a post I have written over at The Clearing Space. I talk about staying calm and sane, with a list of the ways in which I am managing to sail serenely (well, as much as humanly possible for me:) through these last two weeks before Christmas.

Will you pop over and have a read?
