Next year you’re getting everything in gift boxes

I just went through the part of the holidays I dread the most: present wrapping. I procrastinate over it every year because I am the worst at wrapping gifts. I make Joe wrap all the presents to my family, coworkers and the kids, but that still leaves the presents for him. I can’t very well ask him to wrap his own presents, now can I? So I struggle through it and by the end I give up even trying and the presents look somewhat mutilated. But who cares, right? After all, he’s just going to rip them open anyway.

Also, I am turning into a ‘point your finger and laugh at’ pet owner because I wrapped a gift I bought my hamster, Peanut. Hmmm … I’m thinking I really need to get out more. I’m turning into crazy cat hamster lady, but with a husband.

  1. You could always take them to a mall or place that offers gift wrapping. Andy and I volunteered at our local mall to wrap gifts for donations to benefit the poodle rescue and three other animal rescue groups. That way, you would be helping out a worthwhile cause and getting out of wrapping gifts at the same time. I am sure there is some group near where you live that does gift wrapping at Christmas time.
