What a sweet gift!
My lovely bride of 17 years surprised me this evening! To surprise my wife, I took her to dinner last night and gave her the gift I had gotten for her. A very nice pearl and agate necklace she had been wanting. Well, not to be outdone, this evening she gave me a.....
Stillwater heavyweight weathered Lamont!
I was currently kiltless (due to an unfortunate accident that I will not go into here) and was waiting for the kilts I had ordered from Matt. This was very sweet of her and I just wanted to spend a minute bragging on her!
It is very nice when your partner for life recognizes the things that make you happy and participate with you!.
Now to order the brown sporran, belts and the like....

Dood, she's a keeper. A good wife is like fine wine... Only improves and mellows with age.
At 17 years, sounds like she is a fine vintage. I'd hold on to her.

Inquiring minds want to know!
It can't be as bad as me spilling a martini into my laptop and shorting out the keyboard, or putting in liquid hand dishsoap into the dishwashing machine and flooding my kitchen with foam, or the time... 
hmmmm
Maybe somethings are better left unsaid.

Or the unfortunate accident my work lap top had after an incident involving a chipmunk, a yellow lab, and a pair of jeans!
Yeah, somethings are better left unsaid

Does Mrs. Splash have a sister? Maybe there are more like her in the family.

You are one lucky fellow. I find that's one of the most important traits of a woman... if she 'gets' you.
