Ecstasy Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 John knew that I'd had a particularly difficult holiday season this year and was exhausted. He decided to be romantic. For years I've teased him giggling, "So, are you getting me diamonds this year?" and we'd laugh. This year he shocked me to tears with a diamond journey necklace and a dozen white roses. Our kids pitched in together and are getting tickets for us to join them for "Jersey Boys". I love to dress up and go out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darlene Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 I found out that one of my gifts to Herman was a bit strange. I bought him a beautiful compendium of Fifties and Sixties Cars--a huge book by an expert. He opens it up and is thrilled, but says (the photos are breathtaking but...) the information is wrong under them.I was really disappointed, but he loves the photos so, he's keeping it.So, Herman, why didn't YOU write the book, then?I'm glad he loved his other gifts, though.I got from him a beautiful treasury of virtuosic violin classic solos. I'm secretly hoping there are a few misprints in it so I don't feel so embarrassed about the automobile book. --D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
