I need some suggestions on a birthday present for DW, HELP!!!!!!!

[mhopset]

Ok, Becky's birthday is 3-2-03. I am at a total loss as to what I can get her for her birthday.

She doesn't really wear jewelry, no gift cert.(I think that is a cop out), can't go on vacation (no time) she is not a massage typ of girl (only from me) I had thought about a new purse, so I looked on line at the Coach Purses FORGET THAT!!!! This boy is poor.

Some of you nice ladies help me out!

What hobbies does she like? What tv shows does she like? Isn't she going to school? Give us some hints about her to help you find something she'd like.

She doesn't have time to watch TV. She is constantly studying. All the time studying.

She likes to gamble, but heck we both like that. No hobbies at the moment becasue she studys all the time.

I am going to make her dinner. Chicken and homemade noodles with mashed taters. Maybe some hot rolls if I don't screw them up this time. She likes to swim, but you can't do that with 15" of snow on the ground. She likes Longaberger baskets, but it takes 6 weeks to get one of those.

Come on Shannon help a brotha out!!!!!

You could make up some gift coupons for things that you'll do for her. For example...

-You'll go to a movie with her that she wants to see, but you don't and won't complain about it.

-Sometime when she's really tired, you'll get up with the kids and she can sleep in.

-You'll give her the tv remote for the night and she can pick all the shows.

-Breakfast in bed.


Then, when she wants a specific treat she just has to present you with the coupon and you'll do it. Not very expensive, but there's always the possibility she could drag you to a girly movie or take over tv when your favorite show is on.

I'll tell you what I bought myself for my birthday last December and I LOVE!

It's a Palm Pilot that's only $99.00 and it's by Palm. I got it at Sears and got a nice solar blue carrying case for it. I have all my addresses, phone #'s, appts., shopping lists, and more in it and I LOVE IT!

If your DW likes to be organized without getting too high tech, it's perfect and easy to use.

As for Longaberger baskets, you can get them on Ebay all the time and can have them shipped to you very quickly. I used to be Longaberger rep and did that all the time if a client wanted something quick and didn't want to wait the usual time.

I have one of those Palms too....it's great, I love it...great idea!

How about a membership to an indoor pool?

 

[mamajoan]

Hey T... I think FOJMO has a perfect idea! A palm pilot would be great for Becky.. really she could keep it in her pocket at work etc.. really good idea FOJMO.

Becky loves the hot tub too.. how about a new swimming suit?
or is your backyard "clothes optional" too?.. (scary.. the neighbors know WAY to much about Barry's anatomy!) Or a BIG FLUFFY ROBE to throw on once she gets out of the hot tub?!!

You are a good husband.. you crazy man!

How about getting her a picture frame with nursing stuff all over it. Inside the frame, place the coupons *********** mentioned (or others you can think of). Rent a hotel room for 1 night just for the 2 of you, make sure they have an indoor heated pool (perhaps you can give her that massage that she only appreciates if you're doing the massaging).

If I think of something else, I'll let you know.

I'm not married anymore but if I was I would love for my birthday a romatic dinner and to be treated like a queen. That massage sounds real good to me and maybe he would give me a sexy teddy that I could model for him on his BD. I am just a hopeless romantic and have no one to be romantic with, that is so sad
Becky is one lucky girl, she sounds like she has a great guy who is thoughtful and caring
