Wrapping gifts on the floor! - 12/19/02 08:10 PM
The ever-changing body...something has happened between last Christmas and now! I can no longer sit on the floor and wrap gifts without feeling like an old lady. How can one year make such a difference? Oh...my aching back!
Signed,
The whiner

I've moved wrapping from the floor of my bedroom to the bed.....unfortunately, my bedspread got in the way of the scissors and the result, well you can imagine. That's okay, I wanted a new spread anyway! But even on the bed, after about 30 minutes I'm groaning and aching too! Old is Hell!

THIS is why God invented BAGS!!!! I put whatever the gift is in a decorative bag, add some "fluff" (tissue paper) and attach a card or gift tag!! (And before it was EVER "PC", my grandfather wrapped stuff in newspaper or big plastic garbage bags with cut-out comic strip characters on them....Gads, why didn't he patent that odea--we'd be zillionaires!!!)
