I have WHAT in my yard? :

An Iron.

No, I am not kidding. Dh, the test model, bought me an iron for my birthday.

His Mother used to iron his boxers! I refuse to buy things that need to be ironed and I darn well was not going to iron his clothes for him. Funny he had known that and agreed with me BEFORE we got married. But, once that ring was on my finger I get an iron for my birthday!

When we split I told him he could have it as a parting gift.

Well, ain't that something. For Christmas 2003 my "dear, loving, sweet.......you all know I am exaggerating, right? MIL got me an ironing board. LOL I am not hard to please though. But last Christmas, 2007, she sent me a used wallet with a penny in it that actually had someone else's name on the tag.

She hasn't been to our house since 2005 and she is scheduled to show up the 29th for Thanksgiving dinner. HELP Please pray all goes well. Don't worry, I won't Ex-lax the brownies because my kids may get them.​
 
my DH just reminded me his mum bought me a stomach / ab master (second hand from a car boot sale) which she presented to me in front of my skinny SILs (they had no kids and i had just given birth)... i had completely blanked this from my mind as it was so traumatic!

After years of my family putting their own interpretations on my Xmas & birthday lists; ex. “She asked for a cookbook she must have meant she want some nice knives “(Same set I already owned!) “She said no clothes this year, which must mean she wants some new outfits”
They finally sent me over the edge this year when I turned 30. All I wanted was a nice piece of jewelry – some thing that would become an heirloom to be passed down. I made it easy, emailed picture and links, didn’t pick out anything too expensive and let them know if they were uncomfortable picking out something and gift card to a jewelry store would be much appreciated.
What I absolutely didn’t want was a surprise party – I don’t really like surprises or people for that mater.
Guess what I got? Yup! Surprise party courtesy of my DH who should have known much, much better!
I was so upset I drank 3 martinis on an empty stomach, blacked out the whole night and spent the next 5 months in therapy. Because the party was such a big deal for everyone else, I didn’t get a single present – but my DH bought all the booze and I ended up with a credit card bill for $350.00! Happy 30th Birthday!
I guess I should have told them that under no circumstance did I want any jewelry!
It’s actually pretty funny to be able to vent about it.

There's a list.. a long long list:rolleyes:

For several years in a row my FIL and SMIL sent our young daughter a singing wiggling bear that sang Happy Birthday. For Christmas. Oh and it had a bag of bubble gum balls attached. Every one of them got "accidentally" left on the train.
Then there is the large piece of tremendously ugly fabric. didnt seem to be a bed cover. To big to be a wall hanging. And then there is the bed spread complete with stains and stink.

Gross. I washed the thing over three times for the stains to no avail before I gave up and tossed it in the Salvation Army pile
 
Every year I get an expired box of Whitman's chocolates from my uncle. He buys them the year before right after Christmas and by the time December rolls around again the darned things are like hockey pucks.
