Wednesday, December 20, 2006It's True. I'm Actually...Calm. My parents are arriving at dinnertime. I've been smiling for the past three days. Not bad, considering my frenetic nature. Even when I'm excited to see someone, I often start spinning out of control on the inside -- all the "must do's," you know. Not this time. I'm excited without the inner turmoil. Amazing but true. I think I've evolved. At any rate, I leave you today with my Present Wrapping Advice: To avoid an aching back, do your gift-wrapping on an ironing board. It works. I set my ironing board perpendicular to my bed, which happens to be almost exactly the same height. That's my "wrapping station." I'm sure I look like a Big Christmas Dork -- but hey, my back doesn't hurt. Merry merry! |

5of my readers are feeling chatty:
I am totally jealous! I have no inner peace! Only panic!
I have no inner peace, only gas!
I wish I would have read this before I just wrapped all those presents and made my back ache.
Oh well.
Signed woefully unprepared for CHristmas
Jill, I hope that peacefull heart stays with you through the holidays. Enjoy your parents and family time.
I also set up a wrapping station in my room this year. I used a regular folding table pulled up to my bedside. It has been wonderful. Everything is wrapped and no achy back this year. :0)
Christmas Blessings!
Hmmm...Should have thought of that sooner.
And why didn't you post this like two weeks ago? Woman!
You weren't nervous when we came for a visit were you? Remember I was so worried about being "on time" that I forgot about your actual time zone and we ended up an HOUR early?? It was fun to drive around town and see everything that you enjoyed, wrote about at the Mommy group, etc...I still say if I ever moved, it would be to your area. It's so beautifully manicured.
