Beleive it or not, and don't laugh here...

I got my wife a Galco Metropolitan gun purse and a Dallas Cowboys Jersey.
"I'd rather have my gun and not need it, than need it and not have it"
I got my bride a new broom,
couple of pots & pans,
can opener,
some cleaning supplies.
You know, the stuff she can really use, and use well.
Seriously,
she's getting a 230 lumen Ultra Fire
tix to a Hurricanes Game
magazines for her M&P40c
folding knife
DVD's
CD's
wool hat
and new furniture for the bonus room.
Ritalin - So much easier than parenting.
Not too much (some clothes mostly). Times are tough this year.

I got my wife a 40" Flat Screen HDTV.
Before anyone says I got it for me, let me just say that we don't watch a lot of TV.
My wife wanted it for the same reason she wanted Direct TV: so she can watch as many football games as she can!!
No kidding. As big a football fan as I am, she watches more than I do. She goes through withdrawal when football season is over.
. . . and she practices with her Spyderco Delica and likes to shoot my guns, too. She's a keeper!!!
fortiter in re, suaviter in modo (resolutely in action, gently in manner).
Calendars (I got 2009)
both seasons of Heroes on DVD
Robe
Gloves and Hat
I can't remember what else.. it'll come to me, tomorrow morning
Yoda, I am, yes.
Well, we found out a few weeks ago that we are pregnant(our first), so I got her a weekend spa package that has prenatal massages and a pregnancy full body pillow. She also got roses and a trip to her favorite restaurant.
I'm pretty sure I got an AK and a GPS system for the car.
There are two sides to every issue: one side is right and the other is wrong, but the middle is always evil.

I guess, except that I picked out this vacuum cleaner myself. Evidently she had looked at the checking account online and she met me in the driveway when I got home and said "I have a question for you" in a very perturbed tone. I guess it didn't help that I started laughing.![]()

Well, our water heater (which we've had problems with for a long time) went out last Thursday night. Installed a new 50 gallon (with no leaks first time)Saturday. What a difference ! Wife is so happy with abundant hot (!) water that she said we could put a red ribbon on it and call it good.
And, yes, I didn't forget the stocking stuffers.

I got my lady a house. We close on the 29th. Buying a house around Christmas sure has made it a crazy time of year.
