What is it about bubble wrap?! When I get a package in the mail, the kids look at what’s come, then divebomb for the bubble wrap. It must be human nature to want to poke the bubbles and hear and feel that satisfying snap. I could do it for hours!
I saw this at someone’s blog (sorry! I forgot where! leave a comment if it was you). It’s a calendar made out of bubble wrap. You pop the day as it expires. LOL
My only problem is that I’d probably pop them all at once. There’s just something about bubble wrap, similar to a Lay’s potato chip- you can’t stop with one! You can see the calendar here.
Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.

The person in my family that loves bubble wrap the most is my dear 89 year old mother in law. She uses it as a kind of therapy for her hands, believing it keeps her fingers agile. For Christmas one year, we gave her sheets of bubble wrap in different sizes and colors. The purple was her favorite, however she always prefers the medium to larger bubbles over the smaller.
Hope you are feeling better!
