The last month of 2016 is here! Hooray! Here is a list of twenty things to add to your December rituals. (If you don’t celebrate Christmas- awesome! Most of these things are still fun things to do this month.)
- Watch HORRIBLE movies- you know the ones. Christmas Kiss, Mandy and the Forgotten Christmas. Soooo good.
- Throw a party complete with hot chocolate bar.
- Watch classic movies- Home Alone, The Santa Clause, Miracle on 34th Street..all the ones what make you feel warm and fuzzy.
- Decorate your Christmas tree- find a new ornament to commemorate 2016 (for better or for worse).
- Buy the lunch/coffee for the person behind you.
- Drive to new neighborhood to look at light displays.
- Decorate your own ugly holiday sweater.
- Attend your town’s tree lighting ceremony.
- Make cookies.
- Try a new winter cocktail (sans-alcohol for all you youngins).
- Go ice skating.
- Make a donation to your local goodwill - items, money, and even your time are all valuable this time of year.
- Go Christmas caroling- it’s not as bad as it seems.
- Go to the theatre- The Nutcracker is a classic, but there are so many other fun productions put on this time of year!
- Go sledding/skiing/snowboarding.
- Light some candles and take a long hot bath- you deserve it.
- Go miniature golfing- you will NEVER forget the time you and your friends froze your fingers off trying to make it past the damn windmill blades.
- Buy yourself a present because you are awesome.
- Bundle up in a blanket and sit by the fire. And if you are a renter like me, grab a space heater and try this.
- Dare to be different and send out a New Year’s greeting card. Because everyone is over 2016.
