Wife wants me to wrap presents (not)

Well i'm om vacation this week and the wife wants me to wrap all these presents, but I did this instead. Am I alone?


Now all thats left on the 48 is gl***..

 

You've got all week off and you can't wrap the gifts while she slaves away at work?

You'd be getting coal in your stocking if it was left up to me.

BUT, the window frames look great.

 

Looks nice but I think I would have wrapped the presents as well.

 

I just got back from the speed shop with a new crank kit, camshaft kit, timing chain, timing cover, and balancer for some of my christmas shopping.
(to myself)

 

You will be if you don't get those gifts wrapped.

 

The Kids and I are going to the movies later, and then I will wrap! Keep the peace.

 

I got everyone a gift card or booze. I bought neatly wrapped 455 parts for me.

 

i bought a new hood and drivers side door for my truck.....and a nitrous kit.

i got the gf a cam and lifter kit, valve spring and retainer kit, gasket set, and some eagle rods and mahle pistons for "her project" which will probably end up being another one of my projects in the end

you better get those christmas gifts wrapped before she finds out you were doing something else instead

 

I know i never married for a reason... Isn't there places you can take it to get wrapped? Down here in Orlando there is a strip bar that wraps presents while you wait, payment goes to charity as well

 

I wrapped gifts for the salon patrons, like 24+. Yes it's a big pain in the *** because they were small slender boxes and I have pork sausage fingers. But I did it while watching some old movie with a **** ton of 30s and 40s cars in it. Then I took a break and got on here. This was on a Friday ****in night after an especially hard day. Yes I too was alone. I'm not gettin the question I guess.

 

Got to be able to multi-task.

 

Nice I have some for a 54 you did such a great job I'll send mine to you so you will be to busy to wrap them gifts..........

 

Strange you say you painted your garnish instead if wrapping gifts......How did you photograph them a year and a half ago if
you just did them?????? I guess I'm missing something....

 

Christmas is a girls holiday. They get all wound up over just the right gift, wrapping , shopping and guests. If it was a guy's holiday it would go someting like this. "Merry Christmas! -- can I get ya a beer? "
That being said, If my wife wanted the gifts wrapped it'd be a done deal. She has done more nice stuff for me than I could ever pay back.

 

I noticed that to, wish I new how to change the date on the camera and post smaller pics..

 

Get your *** in there and wrap presents

 

Since the advent of Gift Cards, I have one less thing to fret over during these trying holidays. As good as cash and conveniant.

 

I know how you feel .I hate taping cars for paint ,Too boring Just spend a night with her and tape them up .Im just hoping my wife dont ask me........

 

Go get a pile of those gift bags, you can have everything "wrapped" in about two minutes.

 

Duct tape is my friend ,Wrap the presents in duct tape and she will never ask again....

 

• Gifts bags work great. Just drop them in and there re-usable.
• Why wrap, if I´m gonna put it on the car before Christmas?
• My kids like to wrap, let them do it, but I gotta be careful I don´t give them their own presents to wrap
• How can I wrap the H.A.M.Ber calendar if it isn´t available???

... and didn´t I see enough family a couple of weeks ago at Thanksgiving? I think we need to spread the holidays apart.
​

 

You are off all week and your wife is working !
She asks you to wrap the gifts while she is working and you are off .
Now do you need to be kick started to get moving to wrap the damn gifts or what ?
Just do it and make the wife happy ! Remember you have all week to work on the car !

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Just do it, the reward if you do is much better than the punishment if you don't.

Nice ... now go and wrap some presents ... well that is if you want any Christmas fun .. if you know what I mean

 

I actually like wrapping presents. My 12yo daughter and I wrapped gifts last night, it was fun!

 

C'mon,you were just yanking our chains!!

 

my wife asked me to help her wrap tonight.she wrapped, and put the labels on. i asked her which color bor she wanted and handed it to her. i'm all worn out now. i think i'll go to the garage, look at the hot rod and have a beer.

 

...bah humbug...
