Oh, that wife of mine.

I really wanted to get this for her because we had just left a funeral and I wanted to help lift her spirits. It wasn't a devestating price. It was around 2k. Then, after we leave the store she starts feeling we rushed into a decision. I was pretty passive on the conversation. Then, last night she decides we made a bad decision. Let me give you a little history here:

Last year we bought a new mattress set. Most of you know, mattresses aren't cheap. So, we get a new set and within 3-4 months, there started to show signs of dips where we slept. She was unhappy and called the store and they came and got that one and we got a new style for even more cash. Then after a week of sleeping on it, decides she wants the old mattress back because the new style mattress we bought just wasnt comfortable enough. So, she calls the store and they still had it but said they couldn't exchange because we slept on it and there was nothing wrong with it. So, we go ahead and get the mattress redelivered back to the house and now we have bought 2 mattress sets. LOL...

So here we are. She calls the store today and they had just put the order in this morning but should not be a problem cancelling (20% cancelling fee was possible if the order was confirmed = $400 for nothing). Say's it shouldn't post until Monday. So, we are going to get a different set for what she wants in the front room. I really hope whatever we get she is happy with? She's a great wife and works hard, but she also has OCD and if things arent perfect? Well, it would ruin her day everytime she walked into the door at the end of the day. Thank God we have the Mancave. If it looks as if she doesnt like something once we get stuck with it? I will have a new sofa and rocker in my cave!

I have been buying Christmas, birthday, Valentine's and anniversary presents for roughly 40 years, gotten exactly what I was told to get every time and not one of them ever has not been returned.  In other words, I feel ya, brother.
