Some family members travel from out of state and find travel more manageable and relaxing the week before the actual holiday. For example, my boyfriend celebrates the week before with us, and we spend Thanksgiving day with his family. AdvertisementBy having Thanksgiving early, we're able to celebrate the holiday and spend quality time with as many family members and friends as possible.

This summer, three generations of my family — from my grandmother to my mom and aunts down to me — got together at my grandmother's house to put on a two-day garage sale. We spent a lot of time organizing the garage sale togetherAll three generations of my family combined our things for the two-day garage sale, where we grouped items, laid them out on tables, and invited neighbors and passersby to peruse. The garage sale took massive organization between the family to pick a weekend and gather all the items together. Each family member could preshop the sale if one member got rid of something another wanted. It helped us connect with the community, give our items new life, and clear up space in our homes.

For the first few months, we wanted to spend every minute together, excited about this new phase of our relationship. We decided to consciously depersonalize the need to decompress by doing something called "rot time." Meredith Wilshere says her relationship has improved with better communication about the need for alone time. This way, we don't have to feel guilty about taking what we need, when we need it, without feeling like we're neglecting each other. Conversations and communication remain crucial to the health of our relationship, and "rot time" helps us decompress.
