RENUVATION… not really

I'm living in a pile of sand. My husband has decided to change everything!!! He has stripped all the floors of the apartment, given away our living room furniture. We only use our TV room where now everything that used to be everywhere else in the house is crammed in it. Thank God he left the bedroom and my pink room alone. But other than that he's out on a mission. Why do men have a tendency of just waking up one day and deciding… "I don't like the look", "we need a change"… Things were fine, I liked it the way it was. I just hope that at least within the next week we have tiles. I would like to walk without shoes in my own house!!! Actually I always wear slippers but I'm sure you know what I mean!!!


WHAT DO YOU WANT FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY?

I've been getting this question from everyone around? I can't believe I couldn't think of anything. My husband's not allowed to get me anything electronic as in Phone, pda, laptop….etc or for the kitchen as in mixer, kitchenaid, breadmaker…etc (which by the way to me is a hobby so don't think of it as an insult, it's actually my joy to get all sorts of kitchen gadgets and tools) but those things shouldn't be for a birthday. Then there's my sisters….I can't think of a single thing I want. Every year I say I'm going to make sure I keep track of things I'd like people to get me just to avoid this situation!
3 days to go

Maybe he is going to make the apartment look like a mountain dew can color wise. That would be awesome!

Some things are always a good birthday present... but that should be a given :) Tell him you want a bottled rainbow and to swim in the tears of angels, and see if he is creative and does something super fantastic, like taking you to a valley and giving you a mason jar and taking you swimming in the fountain in the Vatican, hehe. I have high hopes...

HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!

Funny, I thought women did that! :P

Birthday gifts? Let's see... purfume, clothes, makeup, flowers, shoes, going out for dinner, jewlery, a movie, purse, glasses, something you've wanted but wasn't worth buying maybe?

hehe i've had lots of experience in that "macho male behaviour" ;P my dad used to surprise us every summer...

we would go on vacation and come back to see our furniture moved around and our loose papers, etc. all put in big boxes..

he would then tell us, yallah illy taboona ikhtho0w willy ma taboona 3ashan ingi6a!

that was a nightmare!

now, i never travel without locking and bolting my room ;P and i think he also got the message!

as for your gift! why don't u hint and lobby for some fine jewlerry.. cartier perhaps, hmmmm a LOVE BRACELET! god! that would be good!
its very sentimental and is a symbol of undying eternal love*.

*like that even exists :P

How about a vibrator? I think you gonna need it soon as most q8ty men cant keep it up once they're into their 30s :/ Just an innocent thought people!

Heheh pink room....sounds so cool.

I never know what I want for my birthday. :/As soon as it passes I find out that I want a million things!

Personally, I like a man who's handy. I have dated a series of men who could not change a light switch, fix a leaky faucet, or grill. I've always done these things and I'm thankful I learned them from a man. Just once, however, I would appreciate a man who could stip the floors, repaint, etc... as long as he did it on my schedule and the way I wanted it.

Pizzazyou cracked me up "locking and bolting "

Judy i like that idea!

Don_veto.....yeah Jewlerry is a good choice but sometimes it's the kind where when all else fails get jewllery

q8tyshareef innocent thought?? I think NOT!

DR don't you just hate that??? always happens to me!

R&R yeah I love the fact that he's handy. DIY kind of guy

cosimfree911, I got a watch last year from him.....has to be something different.

Someone said something about women not liking the way things look. Yeah, that happens, but when men do it sometimes they go hog wild and redo everything. We have a tendency not to think though, so the final product might not look like we wanted it to.

William, Hog Wild...that's exactly how I'd describe it!!! Once men want to redo things they tend to go way overboard...like stipping all the tiles....that's a bit much don't you think?
