Create a Christmas playlist: If you favour Pentatonix or old Elvis Presley Christmas albums, you should create a playlist, crank the volume up and open a bottle of wine.
Reach Out to Old Friends and Family: It’s the perfect time to reconnect with the people in your life you haven’t been in touch with all through the year. Just call to spread the Christmas cheer!
