Seeing as today is a half day at the schools here, I was going to take advantage of my solitude and wrap presents.
And that was the plan, until Son came down with a fever, and Hubby decided that he was staying home for his half day.
So I have been catering to two men at home, moving piles of gifts to and fro, drinking more than my allotted caffeine allowance for today. I am severely tempted to not wrap anything and instead throw them in garbage bags and write their names on the bags with a Sharpieβ’.
Who am I kidding??? I will totally have the gifts wrapped by tonight and be serving hot chocolate and popcorn to celebrate the start of the Christmas holidays. It’s what I do! But I will be grumbling about it.
Eh, my cheer will get here eventually. It arrives around the same time Hubby comes back from the liquor store. Until then, I will be wrestling with tape and paper cuts… π

No plan survives contact with the enemy.

I love buying stuff for people. I love the idea of wrapping stuff all pretty. But I never make it past the first half of the first wrapping venture. I turn all thumbs and then everything after that is lucky to get wrapped at all, much less with pretty, creased corners and invisible tape. My gifts always look like they were wrapped by a half brained epileptic with one thumb in full seizure mode. But hey, it’s the thought that counts, right? Right?

Sure is! I loved, LOVED the thought you put into mine π
