I give.
EARLY on we gave gifts but pretty much since our 2nd year of marriage we haven't done much in the way of gifts. This year was unusual in that I "got" a birthday and an anniversary gift. But by "got" I mean, bought them myself with his involvement. The necklace was a work in progress though and he'd brought up setting the rubies no less than 10 times in the last couple years because of the anniversary, and had done so also around our 5th. Except this time I actually acted on it finally. I am about done for a while. In fact, if he gets a gift, that gift is that I will stop buying shit for a while.kenny|1449864341|3960309 said:ame|1449864200|3960304 said:Nothin, and getting nothin' in return.
I wish it was that way here.
My SO likes those holiday thingies.
Too bad people vary.
I'll probably wander antique stores to find something unusual for him.

Me, too! That expression really drives me nuts. I know it's "a thing" now, but I hate it.

I got my husband the bipod for is 50cal. He bought the gun a year ago but never got around to get the bipod, which is the only way it can be used.
I also got him a bunch of Oregon Ducks stuff and the complete James Bond collection on blu-ray.

Why are you commenting on my post? Because you don't agree? I am able to post here just like all the others. Too bad that my gifts aren't what you would give. Not supposed to talk about religion so why are you judging?
