Really? You Shouldn’t Have….

Really? You Shouldn’t Have….I mean you really shouldn’t have! 😉

Now that Christmas is over and all the wrapping paper is disposed of…and the left-overs are pretty much gone…

We can focus on the “goods”, …the “loot”…the “big haul” , or whatever you call the presents you received.

Yes, yes, yes….we know it is better to give than receive....and that could not be more true than this year, for some!

Usually, the Captain and I do not exchange gifts at Christmas….because we celebrate Christmas all year long.

However, this year…we made an exception!

You see, the Captain bid on a used watch on eBay…and after receiving it, he found it did not keep time.

Disappointed, he sent the watch back.

WELL!  I saw an opportunity to rescue him …so I went on eBay and found a new (still in the box) watch.  I gave the watch to him about a week ago!

However that made the Captain feel a little guilty that he had not bought me a Christmas Present.

I had mentioned some time back that I would like to someday change out my kitchen faucet for one of those motion sensor faucets!…and Yep!  He bought me a kitchen faucet for Christmas and he installed it!

The sensor faucet….something every cook needs! 😉

Not exactly what I would call a personal gift, like jewelry or clothes, but I have to admit…I do like the faucet!

After sharing with a few friends…it appears my gift is not too unusual….

Below are a few gifts that might be considered….well,… different!

Did any of you, my dear readers, receive unusual gifts?

We  must remember that it is the thought that counts. 🙂

Right? Right!
