I don't like the sound of the ice storm ..... not nice at all. I'm glad you managed your wrapping. I'm still waiting to discover what I've missed out. And yaaaaaaaaaaaaay for the MRI caper. At this rate you will have a lovely Christmas. All peaceful and no resident hoverer. :D

I think we worry too much. I know my kids wouldn't be worried if stuff was brown bagged and I'm sure yours feel the same.
