don't any of those varieties of tape rip out hair?
I would have thought that the sight of hairy husbands with little bald strips across [arms / chest / ankles / other portions of the anatomy] where the bondage strips were would be quite amusing (and DEFinitely worth a before/after photo). However, I'm strongly suspicious it might be less than popular with the aforesaid slightly-less-hairy-than-previously husbands, since the tape- and simultaneous hair-removal would prolly be somewhat ouchy.
you've only got two husbands. I've got three nephews, each with a wife and assorted children (for a total of 5.5 great-neices/nephews), assorted sisters and brothers-in-law and other hangers-on. It's Christmas morning, and I haven't started wrapping. I haven't seen the surface of the dining table for a week and a half, it being covered with unwrapped stuff.
and I haven't STARTED wrapping.
fortunately, the family gathering around the outsized poultry with gift exchange isn't until Boxing Day.
(the 0.5 great neice/nephew, not due to be born until Victoria Day, isn't getting any prezzies. but the rest are).
eeeek! I foresee an ugly ugly evening tonight with me wearing scraps of paper and stickytape.
Since my nieces & nephew all live in Canada, I just shop over the Internet from .ca suppliers and order gift-wrapping at check-out. It saves a world of hurt in taxes, duties, tariffs and shipping. And energy/sanity.
well yes indeed. I've learned the hard way to buy from amazon.CA if at all possible, the customs hassles with amazon.COM are not worth any savings.
but to have shopped thataway would have required forethought on my part, which, sadly, was missing. The books for great neices/nephews were bought 10 days ago and stuff for adults a week ago. but I haven't gotten behind in gear to wrap.
I'm off to the dinner. hostess prezzies are wrapped, and two (count 'em, 2) of the remaining (quick count) 27 gifts are still on the dining table. sigh.
