Whadja Get For Xmas From Hubbie?

Nursing Students Pre-Nursing

Published

HeHeHe, I got my "present" early this year. Yesterday, Hubby hands me a 25.00 gift card for Target and gives me the "It's not much but I don't have much time or money" speech. I don't mean to sound ungrateful but it's the same gift card that his boss handed him (not much time or effort involved.) A fitting gift for a marriage in trouble, I guess. :uhoh3:

I decided to make the best of it and bought myself a black tote bag for my schoolbooks and a black dayplanner to match.

Specializes in Home Health Care.

Hubbie gave me some cool yoga work out pants, but they are a little bit small, so now I have motivation to get into them comfortably. He also gave me Bath & Body works "Cherry Blossom", basket, my favorite perfume "Red", Gorgio/Bev Hills, and some Victoria Secret p.j.'s and panties :p He did great considering I told him I only wanted cushy socks....(maybe for my birthday :idea: )

I hope you all had a great Christmas with no fights:icon_lol:

My husband went to Victoria's Secret too - he has never done that before. Cracks me up though because I simply love to sleep in t-shirt and shorts. Fortunately he just bought me a lovely robe and nightgown.

I actually asked him to keep our gifts down to under $50 or even less. I got him the book "1776" by David McCullough and a couple of omelet pans.

K.I.S.S. is my motto.:D

Specializes in L & D; Postpartum.

New Portmeiron mugs and a big bowl, to augment my growing collection. Also a Hawaiian style gold ring edged in black lacquer to match the gold "puka" shells he gave me last year. Oh, and a trip to Tahiti in mid-January! I have a good and thoughtful guy! Maybe the best thing was, though, when we decided to give money to our daughter (his step-daughter) because she's in a radiography program and refuses any offers of monetary help. He said to wrap up ten $100 dollar bills for her. The look on her face was worth far more than that! She dropped the box like it was on fire! Priceless for sure!

Specializes in OB, M/S, HH, Medical Imaging RN.

A $75.00 pillow from Brookstone that I thought would be "wonderful" for my neck. Felt like heaven in the store. He gave it to me last night at midnight because he was so excited and couldn't wait. OMG, I slept with my head on it and woke up feeling as though I had slept on a rock. Poor guy he was disappointed. He tried it for about 30 minutes and understood. I hope they take it back!

A really neat caller ID device. It's a large dome that sits on the TV and it tells you the date/time and when the phone rings it tells you who's calling and if you're not home it tells you how many calls you've missed and how many messages are on your answering service. Too cool! I don't have to get up from the couch if I don't want to answer the phone. The letters/numbers are 2" tall and lighted so I can see them with my bad corneas. I hate it when I'm rocking Wyatt and the phone rings and its a sales call or someone that can wait. Too cool !

A nurses PDR with nursing considerations. Really nice for home health.

And a TIVO. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Here's a gift from me to you......:Present2: :icon_mrgr Merry Christmas!

I guess I had to rely on my mommy to do my shopping for me this year :Santa1:

She got me a new memory foam mattress and pillows (said I will need to sleep well when nursing school starts) and she got a Christmas dish wear set that is all done in snowmen in RED scarves, etc (I have collected RED snowmen for years... they are hard to find... usually they are all done in blue, etc)...

I would say she did good :Snowman1: I have the best mom in the whole world!!!

I just started a new job and my hubby bought me a Littman stethoscope and a flat screen monitor for my computer. I can't believe he really listened this year. I mentioned the stethoscope about 4 months ago when I started my new job. What a great Christmas.

He's finally getting broken in after all these years....I guess it takes patience and time :D

Merry Christmas all!

I got a little over a 1/2 karat diamond ring for Christmas with 24 little stones around it, well he says it's for Christmas, my birthday, our anniversary, Valentines day, 4th of July, the kids' birthdays and next Christmas. HAHAHAHAHA!!!:lol2:

Specializes in pediatric ER.

I got a couple sets of scrubs, a nice big ski jacket (We just moved from AZ to VA and I needed it!), and an ultrascope stethoscope with a pediatric and adult head! Just starting in the Peds ED and needed a pediatric stethoscope! I was pretty happy, even though nothin terribly big, just happy he listened to me and got what I needed!

I'm not married yet but my boyfriend gave me a amethyst and diamond ring, a pearl and diamond pendant/necklace, orange sandalwood essential oil body lotion from Bath and Body, some Sweet Pea soaps and hand sanitizer and a candle. Oh and the most beautiful card that he wrote in, it actually made me cry!
