I have twin sisters who were born when I was 12. When they were 10 they bought me the ugliest necklace I have ever seen. It had huge charms hanging from it. They were so excited about it. They said it looked just like something I would like. Years later someone I knew husband was going to go drag for Halloween. She asked if I knew someplace that would sell some jewelry that would work. I lent her the necklace. I never got it back. Yeah.
My hubby buys me robes - never lingerie. Robes are on the edges of the lingerie dept. I have told my daughters that if they are ever shopping with dad and need to get rid of him for a while to just walk into a lingerie dept and in 5 steps he has disappeared off the face of the earth. Two months ago my oldest daughter did just that. She was amazed.
I usually give him a detailed list of possibilities and where to get them.
We'll be married 40 years in Feb.
I have done a lot of laughing reading these.
