Anyone else hate wrapping presents?

Well, I don't really hate it, per say, but I am not enjoying it this year.  It's kind of the thing for me that I'd like company around to chat with while accomplishing it.  So, when my mom was over I said, "Do you mind?" and hauled some of them out to wrap.  I got some down, but unfortunately not all.  When she left, you would think that I'd just keep going and finish.  Nope, when she left, so did my motivation.  hahaha...I can't be the only one....

Not all presents, just awkwardly shaped ones. I can do boxes like a pro! My nephew wants some Ninja Turtles van and the box it came in has one corner that is flat so it is a 7 sided box instead of a 6 sided box. Why would the manufacturers do that to people?

I honestly don't care one way or the other about wrapping. I do hate the weird shaped stuff.

You're not weird, I love wrapping too!  I usually get all the supplies out, put a Christmas movie on and wrap everything all at once.

Hate it! I am terrible at it and it just frustrates me. I'd put everything in bags if I could get away with it!

I hate it! People that get the gift hate it just as much. It feels like I use a whole roll of tape on one gift, so it takes people forever to open it, shy of breaking out a knife.

Surprisingly, my dh likes to wrap gifts, and does a great job at it. So he is assigned all the wrapping. However, Christmas morning he can always find his present under the tree without looking at the tag just by my horrible wrapping!

I hate wrapping too!!!!! I have gotten to the point where I just use gift bags for adults..and only wrap kids gifts, since they thoroughly enjoy ripping the paper.

Same here-- so I DO put everything in bags when I can. Luckily, most of my gifts are for adults so that flies. My husband is a fast and fantastic wrapper so he normally will wrap anything that I can't put in a bag. It's one of the main reasons that I married him. ;)
