Secret Project

It took me several days of discouraged brainstorming to think of an extra-special anniversary gift for Levi, which was for a couple of reasons:

1. He's a very hard person to buy for. He either already has what he wants, what he wants costs multi-hundreds of dollars (like guns), or if he does want something else, it's stuff like knives and camping equipment, which just isn't all that special for an anniversary.

2. I didn't want to do something typical. Simple enough, right? Wrong. Because that eliminates a lot of options. Which actually makes it more complicated.

But finally, and thankfully, something brilliant hit me. And of course it's a surprise, so I can't say what it is. But I can say that it's been very entertaining giving him hints and trying to confuse him more. :-D

The thing is currently in our shed in the back yard. I have had friends survey it, give opinions on it, and advise me about it. I have spent very little money on it. I have made my back and legs sore over it. And, since it is in the shed, I've had to pull the lawn mower out for Levi whenever he wants to cut grass. Which is kind of a pain, but hopefully he won't have to cut too much grass in the next two weeks!

He's been kind of curious, I think. Are you? :-)
