I finished the wrapping and gift bagging. Have only hats to do now. Only 6 of them. I put my mess away, except for patterned tissue paper and the hats and cards, because they'll have gifts inside each card with each of their hats.
I only had to scold Kitty cat ONCE, when she was about to trip me up as I was feverishly trekking from the eating bar to the dining room table. Then, she was my "helper", stayed out from under foot and was ALL EYES at what must be going on! I know she doesn't know, but she's very expressive and reminds me of Garfield the cat commercials from years ago. She's 1/2 Calico and 1/2 Tortoise Shell. Looking down from above her, she looks Tortie, but under her belly and chest, she looks Calico!
It was nice to have a "helper"!
