Between wrapping paper, presents and dishes, you likely feel like you're in the midst of chaos. Let this be the first -- but not the last -- Christmas where you aren't stuck cleaning up for days to come. There are steps you can take to stay one step ahead of the bedlam. The first measure is to clean as you go. During the traditional unwrapping of the gifts, have a garbage bag on hand. Trash wrapping paper or set aside to recycle. Break up and stack cardboard boxes for next year. Remember, it's easy being green -- simply keep paper, boxes and plastic in separate bags.
