Default What are the odds??

Wife is a book keeper for several law firms, two on every other Thursday...so she knows most of the office staff....and one lady had two deaths in the family, not blood relatives, for her though, and one dawg she just bought not long ago.....

and then after all that disasster crap, a knock on the door on Xmas evening.....she answers the door, and guy says there is a present for you.....she goes to open the garage door and there is a new SUV with a Xmas bow on the hood, from her hubby......

planned in advance......

A nice Christmas for her after all that!

A devoted husband. Or a guilty husband. Wonder what he did...

Saw a Meme Thing the other day that said something to the effect of...

Yeah Right, All the Car Ads with Cars as Xmas Gifts...

Like most Dudes in any relationship, Can you really just go drop $40K on a car without her blessing and approving the purchase ahead of time ?

Think Not...

Nonetheless, in this case, it appears it played out like the TV Ads after all.

So whatever it was that Tiny Tim said... God Bless Us All

Yes, many people can. It happens all the time at car dealerships. My grandson did it a few months ago for his wife. 60K SUV.

If I were to bring home an Aston Martin for $1700/month, I'd better have enough money left over for a divorce lawyer.
