For some reason my DH has not bought me anything for the last couple of Christmases. Last year $$$ was tight but still....BUT he is not shy about telling me what he wants..he purchased a pair of work gloves that I wrapped for him to open.
I did buy myself some new comfy flannel PJs and i bought him a new shirt for work. To be fair, he bought US a new coffee maker on Christmas Eve. He must have been reading my mind as I had been looking at them my self! And he still does not know that I was even thinking the same thing too. He bought a really nice one and he has been making the coffee the last two mornings.
No way would that guy be able to buy anything sewing related for me. I just buy it myself all year long! I also could not buy him workshop stuff for him. We a blessed....we have what we need all year long..with some "wants" thrown in.
