Home Improvement for the Holidays
Getting your home ready for the holidays can help you to relax and enjoy the season. Many people have unfinished projects, areas of the house that have become unruly, and simple repairs that just have been put off. Set aside some time to get things in order and you’ll enjoy having company over without worrying about explaining the mess or being pressed for time.
The first thing to do is to make a list. What things in your house are getting on your nerves? Is it the big coat pile that keeps accumulating on your living room chair? The half painted bathroom? The pile of mail and junk that seems to take over your end table? Identifying areas of concern will help you to prioritize the things that need to be finished or organized.
When you have your list, get a shopping list together. What has been holding you back from painting? You may need a new paintbrush, a drop cloth, or a paint tray liner to finish the job. Whatever it is, put it on your list and get the things that you need to finish. Put them out in the room that needs to be worked on and schedule a time to complete the task.
Another thing that may be on your list is your closet. Many people find it hard to make it places on time because they’re closets are so junked up. It’s nearly impossible to find what you want to wear unless the closet is neat and orderly. You can quickly update your closets and the laundry situation that you may be experiencing will be so much easier to handle.
Get some nice clothes hangers. Your hangers could be to blame for everything hanging unevenly, clothes ending up on the floor, or garments coming out all wrinkled and unwearable. Choose some space saving hangers that keep your clothes from getting wrinkled while optimizing your space. Cascading or tiered hangers are great for hanging like things together, or preassembling outfits to speed up the time it takes you to get ready.
A nice wood hanger or coat hanger is great for your coat closets. Guests and family can hang their coats when they come in, eliminating the coat pile that most homes end up getting. Hanging a bar right by the front door makes a usable space that is separate from the coat closet. This makes more room for the coats that you simply need to store. Using a wood hanger or coat hanger on the bar by the door will keep your entryway looking nice and organized.
Tackle little piles of junk by identifying what keeps ending up in them. You need a special, easy-access place where mail goes when it comes in. Mail, magazines, newspapers, the kids’ art, phones, keys, wallets and change are the most common things that need a place to go. When everything has a place to go, it will make cleaning and organizing a snap this holiday season.

A second hand car is a good one, but to be honest I don't think it will matter IF you don't have a very good rating.
Also, is it wise to put that money into stocks? The economy is floundering, Interest rate are HIGH. It doesn't seem like a smart move.
Propping your business up seems very reasonable though.

Thanks for your tips
Travel. Your son won't remember that the tub needed to be replaced, but he'll remember the Big Apple and the Empire State Building when he's much older. I read an article a few weeks ago about this exact thing, and of 2 authors, 1 was a 16 year old boy. Here it is:
