Today is Hubby Tony's second retirement anniversary. Twelve months ago I got him a present to celebrate the event. This year I bought him some mints, wrapped them up in newspaper I grabbed from the recycle bin, and added a "Retire Mint is sweet" label.
When I saw Tony this morning I asked him what was special about the day. He had trouble coming up with the answer, but as I handed him the package he smiled and said he couldn't believe he could forget such an important milestone.
Five years ago today: World Backup Day
What a clever way in which to gift your hubby! I'd copy this but unfortunately, don't know anyone that young anymore. (LOL)
ReplyDeleteMy late husband used to wrap my presents in the Sunday comics ... y'all were on the same page!
I would have used the colorful comics, but they had already been recycled :-)
DeleteHas it been 2 years already? That is a sweet and thoughtful gift Kathy!
ReplyDeleteI know! Time flies, doesn't it?
DeleteIt is very thoughtful gift indeed!
ReplyDeleteI'm right there with Tony. I never think about the day I retired.
ReplyDeleteBut your retirement day is one of the best of your life.
DeleteGreat gift idea! I think it's pretty funny that you remembered and he forgot.
ReplyDeleteHe said he's been telling people for a couple of weeks he's been retired for two years.
DeleteDo you have power? I've been out since 7:30 last night.
ReplyDeleteThat's about the time ours flashed off, but it came back on five minutes later.
DeleteI'm back. 2PM today. So 18 hours. Ice Cream? Melted.
DeleteBummer!
DeleteOMG, Kathy! Retire Mint! This is brilliant. I love it. So fun.
ReplyDeletePintrest has some good ideas.
DeleteIt's so funny!
