My life is certainly much easier since we have been having these wrapping parties. I remember the disaster of about 6-7 years ago when I had hurt my back just prior to Christmas and none of the gifts were wrapped. At one stage i thought I was just going to have to throw things under the tree and let the kids figure it out for them selves. Now I have all the dates written in my diary and I hope I will never have that last minute rush again.
Oh, Yeah! I have lots to wrap. I have several things I am donating to the school Holiday Bazaar that needs wrapping. I am going to pre-wrap them and place a picture on the box so the students will know what they are purchasing. It takes a lot of time for the moms to wrap and we are hoping that it may save time.
My mum is spending the day here tomorrow and we will be wrapping all of my gifts. We have been setting aside a full day since a few years ago when I hurt my back just before Christmas and I went into full panic mode.
Now we set aside a full day, we have lunch and we wrap.
I pulled out the tote that has all of my wrapping supplies in it and it will stay in the basement where it is easily accessible. This way I can wrap a couple of things here and there without having to dig out my supplies every time.
I have no gifts to wrap , but I do have tons of Christmas totes to go through and organize. It will be so nice to be able to use all my Christmas decor in our new place as the condo was just too small.
I'm going to start wrapping gifts next week. I have bought a few gifts last weekend. I still have a few more gift ideas and hopefully, I won't be wrapping gifts on the Christmas week anymore. This has been my problem for years now that I would like to change.
