   Just because she asked for yarn, doesn’t mean that’s all you get her.

   Excellent point.

   She thought I was making fun of her asking for yarn, so just to be clear, I wasn’t making fun of her, I was pointing out that a lot of men’s wives, I’m sure, ask for jewelry, and SUV’s. So I consider myself very fortunate.

   So just to afford equal opportunity making of fun, I asked for trade paperpacks collecting comic books.

   So there you go.

   This comic had me cracking up! I don’t ask for big things for Christmas either. Yarn is good…:) It is always better to give them something you know they will like and want, then give them something they have to hide for years to come.

   Getting them something they want. That explains all those years of my grandfather asking for black socks. Hey, at least he used them.
