Day 3 (Part 3): Hot Chocolate, Ice Storm, and Wrapping

Before I bring any more treasures into my sweltering North Pole at home, I need to square away the things I have bought so far. My mother loves to do as much wrapping as I can put in front of her, but she can't wrap her own gift. I also want to start a mailing station so that shipments are ready to be ushered off to places far and wide when the time comes. My shopping today consisted of a quick order from Amazon.com for my sis. That's all of the buying I'll do until tomorrow. Right now, there is a hailstorm going on (which anyone with a slight imagination can morph into a blizzard or winter ice storm), and I think it's the perfect setting for a little faux winter wrapathon. I've popped a Swiss Miss K-cup in the Keurig, cranked up the Michael Buble Christmas station on Pandora, and set up a wrapping station on the dining room table. Cozy, right?

Merry Christmas, Mom. This one is yours. Now, where to put it...
