Originally posted by cashthetrashI like to give things away that I have no use for any more but which are too good or valuable to throw away. They might be useful to other people, young people perhaps, who need to get started with equipment or furniture or other things. I don't want to keep things stored in my cupboards for no use at all. If nobody wants them I give them to charity.

I know that women liked to trade knick knack trinkets to each other all the time on the jobs I used to work. One of the girls I visited had this stuff on every shelf in the house and her hou ...[text shortened]... had a house cluttered with knick knacks. So I don't know give her a new storage room to fill up.
Originally posted by lolofYou are very kind and generous and have the right idea. I love giving and must confess like everyone else enjoy the receiving too. I don't think women are the only creatures that like gifts or should receive gifts. But I think it best not to hoard items for a lifetime. Let others get some joy from what you also have enjoyed and move on to new stuff. There are so many people in need of a gesture of love. Sometime I think things own me instead of me owning it. Especially when slaving away dusting.

I may as well add - not much space for storage, 'compact living'.
Originally posted by mwmillerHa you're a lot braver than I am. This could turn into a ladies attack thread very quickly. They may be small except for your wife apparently 😉 but they have a mean left hook. Quick edit fast and place in the joke thread. I'm trying to save ya bro before Super Suzi gets here. Gotta love her. 😏
My wife said she would like to have something new and shiny that would go from 0 to 165 in less than ten seconds.
[hidden]So, I bought her a new bathroom scale. And that's when the fight started.[/hidden]
(No I didn't really do that, but it makes a good story)
Originally posted by divegeesterYou should thank drewnogal. If not for her thread you probably would never have thought about your wife. Good boy. 😀
I've been a good boy this week: bought my wife a bouquet of pink roses and lilies midweek and for her upcoming birthday I've today ordered her some pearls from Jersey Pearl.
