Think out of the box !!


Money saving hint, especially at this time of year--- They prefer the box over the gift!! Children , that is-- whereas we women prefer the contents of the very small jewelry box!!!


Note to Frank: Hint Above!
(amethyst, his birthstone)

May I please write about the crappiest Christmas present I ever received?? Please?? Pretty pleeeeease?? I think it may have even been grounds for divorce, but I'm still here!! Unless you were really trying to think of a not so subtle way to get rid of me--- gotta laugh at yourself sometimes Franklyn-- please let me tell the story!!!!!! about the t----- s--- you thought I'd be so thrilled to s-it on!!!

It's funny how femails cant see the thought behind the gift befour the get all upset and everything.
The only thing I was trying to do with this gift to me (by the Way) was to try and elininate a source of tension between husband and wife.But being a man it was realy the wrong choice and she will never let me live it down. She will never tell of the diamonds and such but loves to go on and on about this one little !!!!!!

I LOVE the picture... I remember once when I was around 10, my brothers and two of the neighbourhood friends once made a huge indoor tunnel fort out of about 35 boxes, with a room for each of us... It was sooo big and filled an entire playroom. I LOVED it and we all spent hours on end playing in there, having snacks and playing games and visiting each others "houses"...

Boxes Roxk! LOL!

Aww. frank. I think you just posted as Nan.

or was that Nan posting as Frank...

ahhhh confusing.

But I think the spellings are a dead giveaway. My father too has the most disastrous cataclysmic sense of spelling. :-D [that's where I got it from... HB knows what I'm talking about here. ha ha ha]

DIAMONDS???? MUST HAVE BEEN ANOTHER WIFE/LIFE !!!
Tension??? From staggering to the bathroom in the middle of the night,semi-awake, groggy, and plopping into a wide open toilet bowl!!! He still doesn't get that buying me a hydralic(self-closing) toilet seat for Christmas, which by the way was a different colour than the toilet bowl--- did not exactly thrill me-- Dr. Phil says we should be gracious when receiveing gifts,, but I'm just not that good an actress, or gracious!!!!So let's just flush this story away,, til the next time-- Merry Christmas!!

But to fair to Frank... since he seems to be made of the same stuff as I... that there's nothing as special as a utilitarian gift.

even if it's T-----S---s over diamonds.

ummm. ok maybe not.
