HOLIDAY SUPER CRUISING MISSION #10
December 8thYour mission for today is to wrap and decorate!!! Set your timer for 15 minutes and see how many packages you can get wrapped! Have fun and enjoy this! Put on some Holiday music and get into the spirit of the season.
For an added bonus mission, set your timer for another 15 minutes and set out some of the Holiday decorations that you have not gotten up yet and/or set your holiday cards that you have received out for display.
We are having fun this season by FLYing 15 minutes at a time!!!
Fly Lady must be on some serious meth this season…it is physiologically impossible for me to have fun while doing something for 15 minutes with a timer ticking in the background. I spent half an hour wrapping CU’s presents yesterday, and just about burst into tears because I couldn’t get my ribbon into the right kind of bow…and I didn’t even have a timer.

Press on bows, baby. Cheap, but saves my temper, let me tell you. LOL. I made wreaths with my kids (well, one is mine, the other may as well be) and trying to get the fancy bows right, on all three, drove me to drink. LOL
Wait, you put bows on the presents? LOL Once the kids were able to do more than lay around like a blob on the floor, I just left the suckers off. It was either that or rewrap gifts when the kids decided to tear the bows off. I would probaly manage 1 - 2 tops in the 15 minutes allotted. I’m just really wierd about the corners need to be tight, straight, even, etc etc. I so need a wrap and chat this year! Of course they usually turn into a drink, chat, and wrap 2 gifts night.
I’m anal about the wrapping, too. Must be perfect and tidy. I could work at Macy’s, I tell ya. LOL
Ooooh, a wrap and chat and drink sounds like fun to me. Might have to do that next week….don’t know about the wrapping or chatting, though. LOL
