The difference between you and me

My husband received a well deserved award at work today. He then logged onto the company rewards website to see what he had won. They had many different types of gifts to pick from including electronics, luggage, kitchen gadgets and so on.

ME: As my eyes glaze over "Oh, look you can get a gift certificate for an overnight stay at a bed and breakfast."

HIM: As his eyes glaze over "A new sawzall. Just what I've always wanted."

This, my friends, is the difference between the two of us.

I have to be horridly honest, I would have picked the saw too ;0) I love power tools.

But, the trip sounds nice. So, do it this way - He picks the saw and then takes you on the overnght. If you had picked the overnight you would be buying the saw. That's the way it works around my neck of the woods anyway ;0)

My hubby wouldn't know what to do with a sawzall but I bet he'd still pick out something that would interest me as "much" as the sawzall interests you!

A sawzall is awesome! Mind you, I am so girly girl, but imagine all the things you could MAKE him do. Congrats on the award Mr. Chopsticks...what did he do?

I can relate to this. I would have to pick kitchen gadgets. You know how I like these.
