He's a better man than I am.
My Darling Husband is hard to buy for. His wants are few, and if he needs something, he goes out and gets it. He already has more clothes than he wants, and is very selective about his entertainment. No sports or hobbies. After a few lottery tickets and a couple of books of carwash tickets, I'm at a loss. I asked him to give me a wish list, and even he can't come up with anything.
So last night he came up with this idea - he said,"Let's take the money you were going to spend on my present, go find one of those giving trees, and buy presents for needy kids." And he really means it! Is he the sweetest man on earth or what?
After I had kissed him all over his face and hugged him till he farted, I said, "You could do the same thing for me." and he said, "Oh hell no. I've already got plans for you!" And I am selfish enough to be thrilled. I think there's a Kitchen Aid mixer in my future. And bubblebath. And maybe some tea. Can you believe that there's only 15 days till Christmas?

You crack me up, Roxie. Only you could include a fart in a sweet, touching story about your husband.
I loved reading this.

He is a sweet sweet man. And I'll hope for the kitchen aid. I have one that is 25 years old (!) and still going strong.
Christmas is going to creep up and smack me upside the head one of these days, I just know it.
