They're okay, give I guess, but just not for Christmas.

Maybe that could be a New Year's gift, a better
and brighter you, but not for Christmas. So we're asking
you about your worst Christmas gift. And Anthony it's pajama
pants and sock, something that he gets every year, probably
because you're really hard to buy for. I don't really
think I've ever gotten a really bad Christmas gift. I
love crafts from the kids. My husband isn't a gift giver,
(04:25):
so I basically just get a present for myself, and
in my mind, I say, it's it's from Bob. So
we're asking you about your absolute worst Christmas gifts or
maybe you're a bad Christmas gift giver because you just
can't figure it out. It's a really, it's definitely a
talent to be a good gift giver. And we have got,

love language, right, Brenda.

No, not really, And I think it had to be
helpful and to keep me out of his tools.
Speaker 1 (05:20):

of manipulative gift. Sure, husband, Brenda, if you had your way, though,
what would be the perfect gift from your husband probably jewelry.
