We had a mini-christmas this evening. Me, DH and dd. Just exchanging our gifts before we going travelling (flights, etc) so we don't have lug dd's bulky presents around. Dh suggested it.
Anyway i have bought and wrapped dd's presents. Bought dh a couple of presents online. They didn't turn up, despite ordering them in november. So I got a couple of alternative presents for him in town and on the way home today.
What do i get from him? A chocolate bar wrapped up from the supermarket that he bought on the way home from the pub.
He didn't bother with a present or card for our 15th anniversary or mother's day this year. To be honest, I never really thought about them. But after receiving a chocolate bar for my Christmas present, I am a bit sad. I know the other present will eventually show up. But a little thoughtfulness, would have been nice.
And the chocolate bar wasnt really even his idea. When he told me i'd be getting no present i jokingly said "At least you could have got me Coke and wrapped it up". An hour late up pops my chocolate bar.
