Red wrapping paper......

.....okay, if I were a retail store that carried wrapping paper, when Christmas was close, I would overstock red and green wrapping paper and then get all the Christmas paper in too. But, apparently that is not how others think. I bought some wrapping paper for Christmas, I like to wrap all of my presents in the same paper, and it is red with white snowflakes on it. Very simple and cute. Well, I didn't buy enough, of course, because for some reason my presents are large this year....and I thought, well, I'll just get some plain red wrapping paper to go with it. Apparently, at Christmas no one has any red wrapping paper.....as one might expect. I've seen some red glitter paper some red on red paper but no plain ole red flat wrapping paper. So, my day off tomorrow will be in search of this elusive wrap.

The rest of the week.....finishing the "chore list" - mom and dad drive through on Friday or Saturday and then I go to Abilene Sunday night. I stay for Monday, Christmas day, and then drive back home that night to work Tuesday, then back to Abilene Tuesday night for my two days off. Quite the whirlwind. I'm looking forward to spending what time I can, with mom and dad.

Until later.....

Plain red wrapping paper for Christmas... well, that's just communist! hehe This is the first year all of my gifts are in the same paper. I think I should re-wrap just one of them in something completely different just for fun.

I'll call you if I see any of that paper.

I like to wrap my presents in all different kinds of paper!
