Good job and when you get it ......brag on him and let him hear you doing it. He will want more of that and then he listens better.

Funny you posted this when you did. Last night hubby and I were talking. We don't buy gifts for each other anymore...we would rather see our kids and grandkids get what they need and want. So out of the blue he said I am going to buy you a gift this year. I said NO! Maybe next year but NOT this year. So of course we went back and forth a few times. He knows that I have been saying for months that I am going buy myself a new sewing machine in the spring when I have enough money saved for the one that I want. So jokingly I said okay...if you buy me exactly what I want and he asked...what would that be? I said a Janome 6600 sewing machine and the cost is $1,000.+

He laughed and said...exchanging gifts NEXT year sounds fine with me. LOL
