Here is ONE area that I excel. If you can't find that "one" surprise then you are not paying attention to your BETTER half.

Then there is what I am getting my wife this year. She loves this certain kind of Saltwater fish called a Blue ribbon eel. Well we pick it up this weekend she wondered why I bought a crapload of PVC pipe when I did not need it then made a tunnel network out of it then buried it in my fishtank. Well she found out when I showed her the fish and said you have to get yours early this year it will not last under the TREE .

if you are going to get me stuff for the kitchen, a set of le creuset pots will do nicely.

Many many years ago .... WHEN I was married, the diamond fell out of my wedding set. I told my husband all I wanted was to have the diamond replaced. True it wouldn't have the same meaning because it wasn't the orginal diamond, but at least I could wear the whole set. ................... Well ........... Christmas morning there was a tiny little box under the tree ... OMG I was so excited .... my heart was racing and I had the biggest smile on my face when I opened the box. Inside the box was a 'key' .... with a note that said .... "your gift is in the shed " , which was locked ....... I ran out there like a child getting their first bike. .... To my surprise ..... there set a big gray VACUMM SWEEPER . .... ............ to this very day my ex and I laugh about the look on my face when I saw the sweeper ..... We were poor and I was a clean freak so he figured I would like this ....... wrrrongggggggggggggggg !!!!!!!!!!!!!! .................. guys - - - NEVER buy your lady a sweeper for Christmas.

What is it with guys and vacuum cleaners? On our first Christmas together together, my EX bought me a vacuum...he was all proud of himself. True, I had asked for a vacuum...but not for Christmas. And I had asked for a specific one (mainly due to HIS allergies). He didn't get the one I asked for...when I was upset (for several reasons), he had the nuts to say (about the vacuum cleaner brand)..."It was good enough for MY mother...". I told him, I hope you like to vacuum...because I will NEVER push that contraption around this house. And I never did. Every Christmas thereafter, he was so thoughtful about gifts that I NEARLY forgot about the vacuum...
