Wrapping Christmas Gifts. Can't do It!

[KSM]

Just glue some left over stock from your next job to it.

@Walks_At_Night   There is no next job (not one I'll be actually working on) I am pretty much retired. So I'm bored out of my skull and don't know what to do with myself. I'm posting far too much, I'm drinking like an ox and I can't wait to shovel snow! The fabric is breaking down and soon will longer hold the properties of a solid.

I may have to get a job!    wrapping gifts

Uhh ... Perhaps you enjoyed working? You are a craftsman, after all. You can always volunteer with Habitats for Humanity or some such if you don't care about the money

idle hands ...

Return the inversion table. She can always do the Shirshasana yoga pose. Get her a cat instead. And the diamond

What a perfect reply.

I do volunteer. I'm a Sally Anne kettle person (ringing my bell) throughout December. I love it.  And I'm not returning the table. Yoga makes women fart. Not into that.

I am looking into other volunteering avenues. Soup kitchen stuff.. but then I stand there and I'm sickened by some of them because they can't be bothered to comprehend looking into their own self worth and putting on their big boy/or girl pants and helping themselves.  Perhaps Habitat For Humanity is something to look into.  Definitely.

@Bart Ell At a time of your convenience, please delete this thread.

@Bart Ell don’t you dare delete this thread. It contains your brilliant wrapping suggestion, which I am planning to use.

And I have no idea on how to go about wrapping this gift in a respectable and presentable way.  Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

@KSM  Get one of those gift bags that hold bicycles.  The dimensions usually are 60" X 72". Possibly big enough for that box?  Slip the bag over that box, flip it around tie it closed with ribbon.

I could delete the dang thread myself. And I hope you use Bart's idea. Please be sure to post pictures of your wife's disappointment on Christmas morning. 

@ShayP I had no idea those things existed. The dimensions you gave will work!  Now my friend, how will I wrap this fucking hockey stick for my nephew?

I don’t have a wife. Maybe this is the reason.

I don’t have a wife.

Quit bragging.

[StarrMountain]

Quit bragging.

Excuse you???

I hope your're not dissin' your partner who put up with all your crap!

Don't tell me you're into that "partner" bullshit. Like her and I run a company together? It's a fuckin marriage and she's my wife. Last night I took Vera for a walk. She was my dog, not my partner.

PS I'm not yelling at you. Just sayin  I don't have a "partner"
