When it Comes to Christmas Confusion is Forever
Two days left till Christmas; one till my wife’s family arrives. There is still a lot left on my list of things to do. Not the least of which is still buying my wife a present. Most women are easy to buy for, simply get some diamond jewelry and you can pretty much coast buy with stupid little filler gifts (“He went to Jared! He went to Jared? He went to Jared!!!) But my wife isn’t big on the whole jewelry thing and that limits me greatly.
Her dislike of jewelry is more from my wife’s wonderful vein of practicality (why spend that much money on a necklace), but yet practical gifts don’t work well either (here Honey, pots and pans). So every year I beat my head in trying to come up with the perfect gift for the woman who doesn’t like jewelry. I’d love some ideas but make it snappy. I’ve got two days left!
