    Default Hey ladies, what are you buying for your hubby/dh this year

    I don't want to buy Mustang parts for my dh for Christmas. His fixer upper from when he was 16. Gah!(but I will consider it)

    Just curious, what things you are looking into and it might give me some ideas. Men are not easy to buy for, at least in this house.

    ETA, I meant SO in the title too.

    DH asked for a video game. That was all he wanted. I'm not sure what else to get him! I will probably get some candies and treats for his stocking. Sorry, I'm no help! I need ideas too

    Last year he got some tee-shirts so I was thinking some work shirts. But I tell ya, they have to feel soft or a certain fabric, or he won't wear 'em. He has a shirt phobia.

    Maybe a MU or Chiefs sweatshirt and cologne is all I can think of...so far.

    A car book he's been wanting (Snake vs Mongoose), a new printer (he's always swearing at his cuz the paper doesn't feed properly), and I'm thinking a new drill (his doesn't hold a charge anymore).

    I always get him new socks & boxers too.

    ETA: he got two gifts early...a video game that he's been waiting for YEARS to come out (GT5) and a book to go with it.

    DH and I rarely give each other gifts since we take our family vacation for Christmas and that is our gift to each other. However, I did get him a couple of shirts last week and I'm getting him a new belt. I'll take them on the trip with us and let him have them Christmas morning when the kids get their gifts.

    I got DBF:
    a huge drill bit set - we broke a bunch of his working on a project this summer.

    Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season II on DVD - when we downgraded the cable we no longer got Cartoon Network and he loves this show. I think he got season I last year for his BDay

    A flashlight that plugs into the lighter in your car - got all the men in my family one of these

    A pewter ring that says "Strength" on the outside and Phil 4:13 on the inside and a leather bracelet that says "Cross Trainer" - he is a strength and conditioning coach and I thought these would be a subtle way to show his faith at work

    Santa brought him socks in his stocking

    Working on:
    Get under 200 lbs. 44/47lbs
    Getting Back on Track!
