AUGUST 2018 NEWSLETTER

With the transition from Summer-travels to the beginning of a new school year (and maybe some back-to-work blues), August can feel like a sudden downshift from the fun of vacation. Stretch out these last days of summer by squeezing in

a few more home projects, savoring simple pleasures and, when the time comes, cleaning up the beach toys and preparing the house for a busy fall. Pick

from these August “to-dos” to create your perfect end-of-Summer plan.

•Backyard Bugs...ew! Wasp activity peaks in late summer; these insects become moreaggressive and likely to sting in, you guessed it, August. So, you'll want to spray for waspsand eliminate them, pronto. While you’re at it, you can spray for those pesky mosquitosand ants too! You can even pick up some spray at your local store to save money on a pestservice!•Clean and store summer gear. Once the last beach day is behind you, take the time toclean out the buckets, shovels and boogie boards so they’re fresh and clean for next year.Toss out cracked or broken toys, and shop end-of-season sales to replace items if needed.•Set up a shared family calendar. Whether you choose a big paper wall calendar or adigital version, having one calendar to rule them all will be a big help come fall, whenschedules get busier. Set up your preferred method now, and record important back-to-school dates and recurring events. Is Grandma or Grandpa a big part of your life too? If so,be sure to share your calendar with them so everyone is in the loop.•Clear the way for easy weeknight dinners. A too-packed kitchen (and fridge and pantry)can make meal prep harder than it needs to be. Clear away clutter to create a cleanworkspace on the counter and remove expired, stale and unwanted food from the pantry,fridge and freezer. Donate unwanted and unexpired foods in their original packaging to alocal food pantry•Get organized for back to school (and work). Consider what would make this fall runmore smoothly for your family: a few extra hooks in the entryway to handle coats andbags, perhaps? Or if papers are a constant problem, take the time now to set up a simplefiling system and an inbox for each family member.•Organize closets before fall shopping. Before making any new purchases, spend sometime assessing what you already have in the closet: Try on clothing, fold and hang up any clothes on the floor, get rid of items you don’t wear and make a list of what you need. Doing this before shopping can help save money and prevent cluttering up your closet.
