I know some of you guys have great SWMBO's, but I gotta gloat a bit over mine.
Been married to my other half now for over 22 years. When the WWW store I was the Asst. Manager at closed down, she showed up when stuff was at 70% off and started buying up a bunch of stuff for me. She kept walking around the store saying, "What's this thing? Can you use this? Can you use that?" She ended up buying me about $1200 worth of really good stuff for about $275.!!
Now comes another good deal... The other night, she and I were at Foxwoods casino with 10 other relatives for dinner. After dinner, she asked if she could play the slots for a while. Well normally I kinda hate it when she does this because I end up hanging around for a few hours totally bored. Well there was a good band playing in the Atrium longe, so I told her to go ahead and I just sat down, had a beer and intended on listening to the band for the time. Well in a few short minutes, she called me on the cell phone and told me to come to where she was because she just won a jackpot! :o)
Turns out she won three grand!
Then you know what she did? She dropped 14 one hundred dollar bills into my hands from her winnings and said, "Now you can go get that planer-thing you've been wanting!"
So now tomorrow morning we're going down to the Old Saybrook tool store and picking up my new Delta 15" planer!
Whatta gal, huh?
