HOW MUCH DOES HOME STAGING COST? 

Home service information site and marketplace Home Advisor notes that it costs, on average, $822 to hire a home stager or decorator for staging purposes, but on the high end this service can be as much as $2,500. While many stagers offer a flat-rate consultation to help give you some information, typically costing a couple of hundred dollars, having a vacant property fully staged can cost a few thousand dollars.

DEPRESSION

DURING THE HOLIDAYS...

When you're depressed during the Holidays... 

We feel guilty at this time of year if we personally cannot live up to the standard to be ever-cheerful and happy and joyful.

— Dr. Arthur Hayward, Kaiser Permanente 

Tips for Getting Through the Season

Get plenty of rest: When you take care of your body, you will feel better.

Try to keep your expectations of the holiday modest:  That may help prevent feelings of disappointment or of being let down.

Know that it is OK to feel sad or lonely:  You don’t have to try to fake it to live up to the expectations of others.

Spend time with friends and other people you enjoy:  Do things you want to do, not just the things you have to do.

It’s fine to say no sometimes:  Wearing yourself out with too many activities will only make you feel worse.

Tips for Family or Friends

Ask your depressed loved one to do things with you, such as go for a walk or to a movie. If he or she says no, that’s OK. But do ask again in the future.

Ask how you can help in the person’s day-to-day life. You might do some housework, lawn care or errands.

Get your loved one to talk about happy memories. This may help him or her feel more a part of the celebration.

Listen when the person wants to talk. Don’t try to talk him or her out of sad feelings, but acknowledge them.
