Okay, so a couple of weeks before my birthday my husband asks me what I wanted for my birthday. Stupidly I replied oh don't get me anything, I have everything I could ever want or need. Birthday comes and goes and I am happy that he didn't strain himself trying to come up with a birthday gift cause I really didn't want anything. About a week after the birthday a package arrives and hubby is about as excited as a five year old on Christmas. I open it up only to find my birthday present........a stuffed vulture......yes, you read that right, he actually paid someone for a stuffed vulture. :laugh: Moral of the story......if asked what you would like for your birthday, come up with something, anything, cause otherwise you too will probably end up with something as ridiculous as a stuffed vulture, which now resides on the top of my refrigerator staring at me with little beady eyes everytime I contemplate opening the refrigerator.

    Oh my gosh! I think your husband and mine must be related in some dysfunctional way... I get absolutely horrible gifts too. For my birthday last year I received a power washer because I mentioned it would be great to wash down the outside of the house and the deck! I am learning, too bad my husband isn't because I was in the garage yesterday and I spied my Mother's Day gift... Adarondak chairs! Lucky lucky me!
