who let the cat out of the bag?

OK- so I don't keep my surprises/secrets very well.

I mean, if it is something serious, I can keep a secret.

But not a secret on myself.

I told RD about the gifts.

And we "talked" it over for a few minutes. He was annoyed... but would you believe? Still no present.

He filled my car up with gas Sat. He tells me that is his gift. With the cost of gas, I know that I should be excited and happy.

But no- I want something that he and GBK picked out together, wrapped and delivered with a flurry of surprise.


I guess I am a romantic and just want to be swept off of my feet with charm.

*sigh*

At least I didn't get a bug zapper like one friend.

Today's gift? Curtains for my front windows to keep the sun out and the house cool. That is a good gift to myself because it will help lower the electric bill- so really, I am saving money by spending money.

I may have to get more curtains tomorrow.

At this rate, my fixer-upper house will be all fixed up by Christmas!
