What to get her??

Our 39th wedding anniversary is this Saturday. I'm stuck on what to get her. She has 5 different guns for CCW (although she has just one favorite for EDC). She has shot gun and rifle.
You know, maybe ammo to go shoot some of those guns. We have a new Ruger .556 that hasn't even been sighted in yet. Hmm.
Should I go and get something off the wall, like flowers too or is that just silly? Would like to go out for dinner but we are having a large wave of the virus again with more restrictions being added back.

Does she have a Pandora bracelet?
She has a few bracelets but really doesn't wear jewelry. What's a pandora bracelet?
I googled it. That's pretty cool.
Our anniversary is December 6 and I haven’t gotten my wife anything yet either so I will be watching this to get some ideas. My wife said she wanted a paid up life insurance policy on me because if I didn’t get her something nice she was going to kill me , and she would be a winner either way.
What is a “Tag”?
TAG Heuer they are a Swiss watch.
I hear there will be a lot of mink coats hitting the market soon. The Scandinavian countries may be culling the entire heard due to virus spread.
Fur coats have fallen out of fashion for quite some time but the feel of mink will never be duplicated with anything faux.
Anyway, happy upcoming 39th Joe to both you and your Mrs. I know you will find her something she will like.
Depends on how much she has gone through putting up with you for that many years. Right now ammo might be a tad much.🤑
Stihl electric chain saw and accessories might work?
Good pair custom work boots?
Might not see her for a few days though, you might be able to make out what she looks like after the 3rd day😲
I got her a vacuum cleaner and new round point shovel for our 10th anniversary. I was out of the hospital on the fourth day.
mine loves new furniture and new vehicles
Just don’t get her one of those plant burgers.😅
let her be moderator for a day..... at least she will know why your in a bad mood at times
Just shy of 50 years of marriage here. The voice of experience...
Have flowers delivered to at her work or group (in front of friends and coworkers)
Then, a more personal gift at home (jewelery), just the 2 of you.
When I buy my wife a present I like to be "moved" when I finally decide what to get her. About a month ago I went into a local jewelry store that changes watch batteries at really good prices. While I was waiting I started looking at the various items in their display cases.
WHAM!! I was moved. One look and I knew I had found Momma's Christmas present. I was looking at the estate sale/antique jewelry and a cameo from the 1880s jumped right up and shouted "Buy me!!! Buy me!!!" A gold mount, some type of thick piece of carved shell for the cameo. Thick enough that the back ground is a light golden tan, than carved until the cameo comes out very white. A real work of art!! My biggest question was if I could afford it. The price was steep but not quite as high as I anticipated.
I had to think for a couple of minutes. Hot Momma is a wonderful good Christian woman with a heart as big as all outdoors. (And the heart is newly repaired too!!!) Momma's heart surgery was pretty rough on her even if she never complained once or even took one pain pill once she was at home. So I made the decision that she has had to put up with me for 22 years so she deserves an even nicer present than I'm getting her so this beautiful cameo is going to half to do!!
Pandora bracelets are great. Start out with a few charms that commemorate special days/times in your life together. Make sure to get a card to go with explaining your feelings about the special days and why you chose those. Kids can add charms as well for birthdays and Christmas. Each year you get her new charms.
Make sure to get a bracelet that will have enough length to add charms. Spacers are gorgeous little add-ons that add bling.
Mine has a book, a high heeled shoe, a cardinal, a family, a snowflake encrusted orb and many others. I love it and am not one to wear jewelry. This i do wear because of the meaning behind each of the charms.
Buy her something "girly"
Kirby Vacuum cleaner
Just make her a lovely "stay in bed" breakfast. The works. She will love it.
make her feel feminine and special
Jet liner was about to crash, no hope. Stewardess comes screaming up the asile, "someone make me feel like a woman, my dying request". Gentleman "say's I can help" pulls of his shirt and tells her to go iron it.
Oooo that's bad!!! 😁

I know a guy who gave one. Somehow he got it somewhere else aside the jewelry store. Gave it to his Wife... only she found a small etching on it to someone else. Then it became a Pandora Box.
I think you should get her a present she'll like.
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I got mine a new belt and bag. I may have misread her, but I don't think she liked it very much.
I don't know why she didn't like it, but that belt and bag made her vacuum cleaner run like a new one.
I got the little lady a Brinkmann smoker for Christmas a few years ago. She did not like it one bit.
I got my wife a mood ring.
When she's happy it turns green, when she's sad it turns blue, and when she's angry it leaves a big red mark in my forehead!
Choose wisely, MJ!😀
Get her a one week vacation in a spa somewhere tropical, by herself. She'll always remember it as the best vacation she ever had. 🤣😂😁
