If I could remarry I'd marry my wife over and over again...

Well, mine likes me to be not too ferocious with my Jeep buying but she's been real patient with me and being as Christmas was coming up she agreed to the snorkel instead of loads of little prezzies as is our norm. It wouldn't normally be a problem but we're adopting children and all the expense that goes with that, including my wife giving up her job to look after them fulltime. As such, we've got to be smart with the finances He's blessed us with and the only one good at keeping such things in check is my wife.
Thats awesome! Good for you and Her.

Well, Christmas is around the corner....so, reviving an old thread....
My wife just told me to go buy new bigger tires. I'm going to try and hold out longer and get a new set of rims at the same time.
What is on your Christmas list?

We have a cabin in Estes Park procured for the long holiday weekend -- we're not big into gift-giving. I am sure we'll drink and eat aplenty, snowshoe a bit, and, assuming the Jameson is flowing appropriately, I am going to try to ride a moose.

Now I have a girlfriend who is way into me and my Jeep and bought me a winch for my birthday! No idea what will be under the tree this year.

Well that may be the first, and LAST time you ever try. Makes me think of the guys that tried to rope a bull elk. That didn't turn out to well. Or the guys that roped a swimming bull moose from in a canoe.....lets just say they got wet and the canoe didn't make it. Remember moose like to stomp, and frequently kill people when they're not in a very good mood. I bet trying to ride one wouldn't make one very happy. But you go ahead and give er' a try when you're feelin' 10 feet tall and bullet proof. Be sure and take plenty of pics...!!! :crazyeye s:

I've performed more delicate feats.
Look here, Alaska, I'll take plenty of pictures.
On-topic:
I never expect the misses to get me anything, for any of my various outlets. If she does, it simply shows her thought and good intent, which can be expressed in myriad ways. I appreciate her for being her, as dramatic as she may be at times. The point in all of this, don't hang your head if your better half doesn't indulge your Jeep hobby... be happy that she allows you to have such a hobby.
