WOW! I will come off sounding horrible here, but I preach honesty so here goes:

I wanted a new sweeper so bad for Christmas one year (long time ago). I like it when my house looks nice and a sweeper is a must have!! Mine was just a cheapy and it finally sucked it's last piece of dirt. Christmas morning I was so ready to open a sweeper, but I didn't see a box that I thought large enough. So anyway to cut this story short, I received a diamond necklace with matching stud earrings. I was soooooo disappointed. We don't go anywhere fancy for me to wear diamonds....I NEEDED A SWEEPER. So a few days later I asked him if he minded if I returned them and bought a new sweeper. He was trying to do the right thing, he didn't think I would want something to clean the house. I told him "granted, I wouldn't want a box of dust cloths," but I really wanted a sweeper. Anyway I did get the sweeper.

My best received gift from him was my very own tool box. Every year I get a new tool, (if I say which one I'm wanting) for Christmas. No more running out to the garage for this or that....if it's not in my tool box....I don't need it. After a few years I did ask for a bigger tool box and got it. Best gift ever!!!

Boy, my posts sometimes just seem to go on and on don't they.....Sorry!
