What do you get an 81 year old for Father’s day?

by

It seems like almost every week this month we have a birthday or a party of some sort to attend. I was just talking about my friends upcoming birthday in my last post and now I’ve just realized that Father’s day is coming up soon too!

Man, this month could be expensive!

My parents are gone, unfortunately … but my husbands are still around. My husbands father is 81. Hmmm What do you get an 81 year old for Father’s day?

Lucky for me I came across this father’s day gift guide 2010 and I think it might help give me some ideas. It might help you too if you’re as stumped as I am.

At this point I have no idea what we’ll get for my Father in Law. He’s really into genealogy and any thing Ireland … so maybe something along those lines.

Have you come up with any cool ideas for Father’s Day? Care to pass a suggestion along?

Trying to find a special gift for a friend

by

I have to find the perfect gift for one of my friends. She’s turning 30 this month and I want to get her something special.

The problem is that I have no idea where to start. She’s a bit of a fashion hound so I thought I might get her a designer purse … but that’s probably out of my price range.

She also really likes horses. She rides regularly, so I thought that perhaps getting her horse tack might make an ideal present. I know it would be a little unusual, but it’s the best idea I have right now and I think she’d love it.

Any idea for a fashion loving horse affectionado?

I’m the advisor for my group of friends

by

I think I’m the group adviser for all of my friends. They are always calling me up to ask me for advice.

They’re always asking me things like “What would you do in this situation” or asking me advice about their relationships or worse their health problems asking questions like “what are the best weight loss supplements?” and so on.

I guess I get a lot of health related questions because I’m a nurse … but the rest? I don’t know. I guess they think I’m a good listener. I think I give fairly good advice, but as you can probably guess most people don’t take the advice they get – even when they asked for it. LOL

Are you the “therapist “for your group of friends or do you have a friend that you always turn to to ask for advice?
