just putting the gifts in those fancy bags, still there's tissue paper but takes less time to handle each thing. Some stuff I wrap a piece of tissue around but the rest can often be set in the bag and it's done.

I kind of miss having kitties to help me wrap presents.

When I unrolled a large sheet of wrapping paper, my 17 YO Kittyboy launched himself through it like a football player.

and then ran off with a piece of ribbon.

by the time I caught him, he had swallowed half of it.

While I was distracted with Kittyboy, 12 YO Kittygirl shredded the paper roll.

ugh.

I have a 15-year-old like that; he can and does jump up onto everything.

Kittygirl looks and acts like she's 9 months old.

And when there's a bat in the house (like I had last week) - Katie Bar the Door.

rip off a small length of the brown paper wrapping, add a little of the hemp string, and toss a bow all in a pile...……….. Nosey Diddy-Bits is occupied long enough for 3 or 4 gifts!
