So this is petty, but I'm going to post it anyways. Every year at Christmas I buy DH, kids, family presents and I try really hard to buy things that people arent always expecting. But every year I almost always know what I'm getting ahead of time. People ask me what I want and I tell them, but then they tell me they got it. I like surprises for presents so that I have something to look forward to, but I almost never get surprised at Christmas. This year my dad and mom asked me what I want. I told my mom I wanted an Apple watch and sent her the link on Costco's website. And now every time she talks to me on the phone she makes sure to tell me she bought that. DH bought me a frying pan on a All-Clad 2nds sale that I had to get on the computer and order for myself. And then we went shopping this weekend and we found a backpack for my trip to Ireland and he decided to buy it right then for me for Christmas. I appreciate it, but it would be nice to have a gift I didnt know about.
2nd bitch - DH knows how much I LOVE Caribbean vacations and think about them constantly and this weekend he talked to me about going to Aruba for April break. There is a sale today on the hotel we like to stay at, and then yesterday he said he decided it wasnt a good idea. So he got my hopes up and now they are crushed. I know we could still go someplace else that week, but I'm still a little disappointed. I love the beach and warm water especially after a long Vermont winter.
I know that wasnt much to bitch about but I had to get it off my chest.
