Michael~ Best gift I ever received was a hand embroidered handkerchief. The emblem and the fact it was a hanky both had significant meaning to me. My second most treasured gift is my whip. This does not take into account all the sweet wonderful treasures my children have bestowed upon me.
No such thing as a "worst gift".
The thought is exactly what counts!!!
$$ means nothing to me although I like expensive things like the next gal. I prefer to be given a plant or flowering shrub to flowers that whither and die..lol although I can kill a plant pretty fast too
If you give me a vacuum just plan on you being the one to use it.
I do appreciate when a gift is for me personally as opposed to the house BUT often I suggest things I want for the house as gift ideas so it's understandable if that is what I get.
I am lucky in that Mr. Lil is an extremely thoughtful gift giver. We actually have the flip problem at my house. I can never figure out what to get him and I am never sure how much men appreciate handmade gifts etc. I once bought him a really nice watch and he returned it. I was really hurt. I understod his reasoning but I was still crushed. I'd like to know, aside from power tools, what do men want?????
