Wrapping Gifts...When Do You Start?

[GsmackMom]

 I am usually a last minute wrapper, but this year I am really making an effort to wrap early.  I have wrapped everything that I bought so far, which is unusual for me, especially before it's even December.  How early do you start wrapping?

I'm last minute on everything; so I'm the shopper and wrapper on Xmas Eve:(

WRAPPING GIFTS MAKES ME LAUGH! THAT'S WHAT MY FRIEND TELLS HER KIDS THAT THEY ARE DOING WHEN THEY ARE REALLY HAVING DAYTIME SEX!!!!!!!

SO REALLY I DON'T WRAP UNTIL THE WEEK BEFORE, OTHERWISE IT GETS ALL MESSED UP!

I want to do it soon, but this year we won't be finished buying till sometime in december when my husband gets his bonus check and he wants to wait to see what all we have for the kids. When I take the kids to have them buy something for each other we will wrap those right away.

I work for a pretty small company, and the first year I started we got our bonus in mid December.  The next year my office coworker and I were talking to the office manager (and co. owner's daughter) about Black Friday and she asked us if we would like to have our bonuses before Black Friday, so for the past 2 years we got them with our Thanksgiving week check. This year I believe its going to be the same.  The stuff I bought that I wrapped is clothes, so they go in a shirt box then in wrapping paper, and with clothes I tend to buy evenly so I don't have to sort them out as much.
