Or at least after this weekend, I will be.
Do me a favor. Reach deep down into your amorous bag of tricks and tell me about the best gift that you hated giving your partner.
I really doubt anything you say will beat what I have in store for my husband this weekend but I love humoring you, so comment away.
After you show me yours, I’ll show you mine here. But shhhhhhh! It’s a surprise!
Share it:
I ♥ Diane Mandy, Aka_monty, Manager mom, Raehan, Old horsetail snake, Faiqa, Ceressa, Liz, Andrea, Fairly Odd Mother, TheMama, Willow, AM, Jennifer, Atomic Bombshell, Jean-Luc Picard, and Angie.
My husband has no clue about Nascar. I once was an extreme Nascar fan. Too bad about the rain predicted. Try to have fun. There will be moments when you are very glad you did this for him.
Can’t say I can answer this one right now!
I can’t say I can beat that, unless you count the fact that I suffered through at least THREE (yes, you hear me, three) Nascar events here in Southern California with my ex.
You’re going to the Richmond race and you don’t even care??! Tell you what…I’ll go with your husband to free your day up to do what you want.
I’ve been to that race - and the spring one - fifteen times, maybe more. It’s awesome. Just give into the experience and you’ll have the ride of your life.
Um…do you have an extra badge for me since I am bringing my husband and have to sit in the rain?
BTW, my husband figured it out today when he heard an ad on the radio. He finally put all of the clues together. I told him you, sis, and BIL are coming too. He is very much looking forward to it, even in the rain.
Hmm… I posted a comment that I think went somewhere else so I’ll just say good luck, take an umbrella and have fun!
The “cleanest” best gift I ever gave my Hubby…
I purchased a child-sized *gag* Yankees hat and photographed our newborn in it for his first Father’s Day. Then I framed it for him.
Ew, ew, ew.
To this day he claims the gift was actually permission to raise our son a Yankees fan. In Massachusetts. Fat freakin’ chance.
This isn’t really what you’re talking about but I’m cringing nevertheless because I am a silly woman who doesn’t believe it when her husband says she’s hot - I’m working out and dieting in the hopes that I’ll have the nerve to do a pin-up photo shoot.
I got my husband a Playstation with Guitar Hero. I might as well have gotten him a big bag of meth.
FOM - That’s hilarious. Now that I think of it, Ratchet & Clank games are the same at our house.
I’m more likely to be the one playing GH.
best gift I ever gave my husband? I gave him permission to throw away 10 things in the house - anything he wanted, and I promised to not say a thing. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done.
Can’t top that- won’t even try- but you are a “rock star” of a wife!
he is going to love this!!!- hey, I hope he’s not reading this post-sshhh- no snooping!
congrats on 14!
I pretend to get along with his parents. This is one of those lifetime gifts.
You are a better wife than me.
If you like NASCAR like I don’t, that surely has to be the bestest ever gift. I pity you. Don’t make it a habit.
I am much too selfish to give him a gift I hate giving.
I wish I was kidding, but I’m not.
But if I were not that way I’d go to the MacWorld expo (or whatever the hell you call it) that happens every year.
Oh - you are TOTALLY gonna be Wife of The Decade after that one. And you’re a much better woman than I - I just find those events so perplexing, and a bit frightening as well.
I haven’t been married in so long that I forget.
hehehe But I DID do the same as you with a boyfriend - birthday tickets to NASCAR! At the Texas Motor Speedway. Surprisingly, I had lots of fun. I hope you do too!
But I think the best gift would be the time I gave (same guy) 2 tickets to watch the Steelers & the Saints play - he’s a HUGE Steelers fan. I LOSE bonus points, however, because I refused to be the one to use the 2nd ticket. Nascar yes, football no.
Oh my! You *are* a better wife!
