My wife said let’s not buy for each other this year, we can count the new TV as our gift to us. I said ok, but I still might want to get you something else. Then I found an nice electric fireplace on Craigslist that I decided to get. Was planning on putting it out early x-mas morning, tagged to Me and Her from Santa, but she came home today earlier than I expected and seen it as soon as she walked in!
Oops. Merry Christmas I said. She didn’t act very excited but when I turned it on beside her later she seemed to enjoy it. We keep our thermostat set at 62 degrees.
Santa is still going to leave us stockings on X-mas morning.
Did you guys talk about gifting/not gifting for each other?
Since you normally buy for her AND you’ll be together on X-mas day, I say get her something small. If you don’t, and she got you something, you’ll feel like a mope. Better to have it covered, I think, just don't go overboard.
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
