But see, that's the problem, I've done that. I've pointed it out in the store, in the advertisements and so forth.
Biggest problem is that while I absolutely detest surprises...just about any kind, wife loves them. So she loves trying to surprise me.
I do think I'm at least beginning to get the message across that if it's not practical or usable don't get it for me. I don't want anything that has a sole purpose of being looked at.
It's helped that we've been de-cluttering the house. I'm able to say on a regular basis that wife needs to educate her siblings that Nana needs nothing that isn't functional. No trinkets, no knick knacks, etc. I've been able to convey that regarding the whole house, so I think the message is getting through.
You're going to buy her a bicycle, aren't you ;~D
