Okay…I like the Holidays. I really do! Don’t get me wrong. But sometimes this time of year drives me nuts. While the kids were home from college for Thanksgiving break, they helped me get the tree up and decorated. My husband and I had a great time shopping and wrapping that business up. We managed to escape massive crowds…it’s all in the timing, I think. Anyway, yesterday I had all my stuff together to un-nekkid things under the tree. Between doing my other regular-type stuff, I wrapped and wrapped and WRAPPED. So what happens? I get to the very last gift feeling sooooo damn good and BAM..ran out of tape and ran out of ribbon. Isn’t that always the case??? ACK!!!

Isn’t that always the way! I finally started buying Christmas gift bags when they go on sale after the holidays and keep them on the shelf. LOL! As long as I remember where I put them, I’m set!

Awww, I love those bags. I save them but then I feel lazy if that’s all I put under the tree..I know I know…not at all lazy but my family looks at me funny and it gives me a complex! LOL. So I use bags for little or hard to wrap things and the rest I do the old fashioned way so I’m always scoping out assorted sized boxes. I swear Wal Mart loves me because I’m in there every other day for some itty bitty dumb thing. It’s kind of like having to rush in there for FUSES or something. ACK!
