Well, our main store here is Pamida. It's like small-town Target but less, well... everything. It's not easy finding gifts there (I had the same selection for Eric's birthday). Eric got me Shoot Out, which, if you remember, is that awesome mini-basketball shooting game. We got it all set up only to realize they hadn't included the basketballs. He also bought me a Brita water filter that fits, "any type of faucet". I guess that only applies to any faucet made after the 1960s because it definitely didn't apply to us. While we had to return half of my birthday presents, it was still fun opening them.
A huge plus was that I got a delicious homemade dinner from Eric and a cake all to myself since cake is not Eric's favorite. I, however, love cake and would attend a stranger's wedding reception to get a slice.
After a few mishaps, I just had to laugh and admire my dear, wonderful husband for all of his care and concern in making me feel loved on my birthday. Especially when he was sick. I sure love him.
Also, to my utter delight, my students and co-workers were surprised that I was "only" 23. Last year I would have killed for an estimate over 16!
