Wrapping presents=whoops!

[jeffrefrig]

So, today I stopped by my fellow school board retiree’s house this morning for a Christmas beer and a Christmas, uh, treat. Came home and got myself together and started my final wrapping while Mrs. Refrigeration is out somewhere. So, beer, etc. was here and I got to my 2nd from last box to wrap and ran out of tape on that roll. I got it done finally and this picture below is a bi-product of a few beers, a prescribed painkiller, and a couple other “breaks “ while I had some most excellent music playing with some mesmerizing Christmas North Pole workshop cartoon on DISH Network. I just had to share this with the Forum Folks.
At least it took the cancer thing out of my mind for a while. My two bad knees hung in there for me, too.
Merry Christmas to everyone who cares! Love yinz guys!

Looks pretty good to me!

My presents usually look they were wrapped by a hyperactive 3rd grader.

It is Jesus' Birthday, so of course that is the correct wrapping (or rapping) paper!

Next time Scotch tape is an issue, switch to grey paper and Duct Tape. (Been there, Done that!)

Brown paper packages, tied up with strings, these are a few of my favorite things.

It’s the thought that counts! Happy and SAFE holidays to all.

Yep, just pencil in a couple of Jesuses (sp?) on the outside and you're good to go. *s*

Ya know, true story similar to that one I did. I used to use newspaper to wrap presents once in a while. Inside the front cover of the old local newspaper, page two top left corner, the local police and fire reports are there. Well, my stupid butt made that section of the paper I was using on a gift for my Gramma. She saw it and said she already read it and laughed. (Minor altercation, no charges) The local paper’s on the scene reporters were on the case for scofflaws running stop signs and murders. Beaver County, PA…I miss you!!

Back when the funny papers was a section, I used to wrap presents in comic strips. Now, if Herself leaves the wrapping paper out, I use that. Otherwise, brown paper, ribbons and bows!

My presents came in 6 fairly large boxes. 3 for me and 3 for the wife. Some assembly was required. Heated vibrating recliners with power lift.

Most of the people in my family wouldn't even notice.

Whenever someone asks if I want one of those for Christmas, I always say, "No tanks!"

I got one of those a few weeks ago. I don't like it for watching TV. I go to sleep Larry
