He sounds a lot like my husband. He tells people he’s my mule or work horse. On the days when he isn’t at work he’ll even go to the flea market or garage sales with me and carry my stuff. He has had to accept the fact that I prefer plants or yard items over jewelry or bouquets of flowers. We’ll celebrate our 26th next month. Hope you had a great anniversary.

He has made me, the two ddaughters, and the granddaughter bottle trees, ect. –but he “doesn’t care” about that “stuff”. Best wishes to the two of you and many more anniversaries to come.

We’ve been married 23 years and a thoughtful gift to me would be a bunch of pallets lol.
Happy anniversary to you both.

Congrats on the anniversary and I hope you take time to have a picnic or something and enjoy the time together.

I agree about the gifts and not just anniversary gifts. Some of my favorite gifts were a truckload of gravel one mother’s day, the owl pellet my granddaughter gave me for Valentines Day this year, the old stuff picked up here and there that someone knew I would like….. I get up at 5am each day for work. My hubby doesn’t have to be to be at work until 9am, but he gets up with me every morning, fixes me coffee, makes sure I take my medicine, and usually gets me something to eat. He constantly tries to take care of me.

Uncommon gifts are priceless and normally come from the pricesless people in our lives.

Enjoy your day.

He's discovered I'd rather have him help me with a project than to open a gift. He surprised me at Christmas with 6 tree stumps hollowed out to plant! He's a keeper!! Have a wonderful day together in the garden!]]> Happy Anniversary to both of you! What a sweet relationship you have still after 20 years! ♥ My hubby and I don’t buy gifts normally for any special reason. He’s discovered I’d rather have him help me with a project than to open a gift. He surprised me at Christmas with 6 tree stumps hollowed out to plant! He’s a keeper!! Have a wonderful day together in the garden!

What is it about old stuff that keeps us going – old motorcycles and old garden things and bicycles, too. The guys at the bike shop one year thought it was “really strange” that I got a set of new tires for my mountain bike for Valentine’s Day one year instead of flowers. Happy Anniversary to you both and many many more!
