The Difference Between a Boy & a Girl

No, this isn't a talk about the birds and the bees. Calm down.

Last weekend I discovered three gift cards in my husband's car console. He had two to Lowe's and one to Home Depot. Naturally, I asked him, "Have these been used?" He naturally answered, "I don't know." Geez.

Come to find out, we had $50 to Home Depot and $48 to Lowe's left on these gift cards that he had hiding in his vehicle. Where did they come from? Our wedding shower. Our wedding shower that occurred in 2008. How the crap does that happen? I mean, really.

The positive side of this irresponsible behavior is that it was like having free money appear out of nowhere. So naturally, I got to decide what it was spent on. Nice. 

I decided on a new light fixture for our bedroom. Here's what we were working with before hand. Not OK.



Here's what we have now thanks to my hubby's mad electrical skills. (Well, he developed his mad skills.) Love!




Once the light was in place, we stood back to observe our handy work. (Like how I threw "we" in there?) My response was, "Look how romantic it is!" My husband's response? "How is that more romantic?" Geez.

Until next time...
