New Year's Resolution Checkup

It's January 27. Just a couple more days until the end of the first month of the year. Just about the right time for a progress report on those New Year's resolutions, don't you think? So, the big question: How are you doing on your New Year's resolution? ... Me? I'm doing okay. I resolved to actually read all of my book club books. That one is a struggle. I'm 0 for 1. And I picked the book! But, I also resolved to be more organized. Luckily, I don't have to do that one all on my own. I've been using my Tango Travel Wallet as a home organizer. I keep my receipts, credit cards, rewards cards, and coupons in it. I've never been more efficient at the store. So, on that one, I'll give myself an A+. (Alright, fine, I'll give half the credit to the Tango.)

Thanksgiving Travel Tips ... Be Stress Free!

Holiday travel can be stressful. Okay, sure, that could have probably gone unsaid. I mean, with tens of millions planning to hit the road next week for Thanksgiving, there's bound to be plenty of stress to go around. But I've always believed that one key to being stress free is preparation. (See that woman in the picture over there to the left? She prepared.) So, I've scoured the web to find some sites with varied travel tips: First, here are some air travel tips. And here's a whole site dedicated to traveling with kids. Here are some driving tips. And for good measure, here are some tips for those who are stressed just from the thought of holiday travel and have convinced loved ones to travel to them.

Of course, the biggest preparation tip of all is to carry smart bags and travel accessories. Pack a Puddle Jumper for an overnight trip or opt for a Shuttle Bus for the weekend. Or there's always the Tuk Tuk or the Taxi or the Moped or ... Well. You get the picture. There's a Lug bag for every possible pilgrimage, plus accessories (like a Nap Sac or a Flatbed or a Tango ...) to ease any travel stresses.

So, be prepared, and you can be just like the woman in the picture. Or at least a little more carefree.
