The last present in my stocking...

[chayton]

I have to share with you guys....Ray and I were exchanging gifts tonight, I thought we were done and he said, "Wait a minute, I think there's one missing - check to see, maybe I left one in your Christmas stocking..." Sure enough, I went to the stocking and inside down at the bottom there was this little box.

I unwrapped it and found this.

A very nice show of appreciation within a partnership, quite reinforced by that lovely gesture, happy holidays to those that try to bring a little suspense and mystery into these bank holidays that we share.

I, myself was showered (perhaps a hint) with many gifts of soap, deodorant, shampoo and antiperspirant with the added extra of half a dozen of black cotton socks.

Happy days I say

I think so too. She just didn't say it out loud.
Chayton...where are you???

If we were to consider life as a luxury we would obviously want the diamond progressive, not always possible but we could slot it in (groan)

Who gets a ring every other day?

Anyhow, Sara knows but Ray proposed to me awhile back but I didn't say yes - to be clear, I didn't say no either. It came as a bit of a shock to be honest, we're both pretty independent people and neither one of us really cares so much about the whole hooplah about getting married. We've both stayed single all these years and it just seemed like, "Why bother when what we're doing now works?" We never really talked about it though, and then boom one day we were watching something on tv and he put it on pause and turned and asked me. It was pretty surreal actually, freeze framed Columbo or whatever on screen and Ray - the confirmed bachelor - asking me to marry him. So, me being me, I got the giggles and couldn't stop.

Totally romantic, huh? Then when I realized he was serious the panic set in...

Soooo, he told me to think about it and he'd ask me again. And so he did (this time without Columbo) and I said yes. Still got the giggles though - and the panic...we'll see.

Well double reasons to party then!

Hope you both keep that healthy attitude, and live happily ever after:clap:

Sorry for forcing you to tell Chayton, but I thought the story was so cute, and so typically you

Now I'll sit down waiting for that invitation....

Congrats Chay!

I never read this thread because I thought it was a 'joke' kinda thread, so I didn't check it out...until now!

I followed sara to your thread and ...just so happy for you!

Nice dazzler, there!

It sure beats being given a bottle of Bleach to clean around the home as an ill advised joke to show the fact that you ultimately care immensely.

Thank you for saying it. I wanted to ask but wasn't sure if she would be upset if it wasn't for a proposal

Congrats Chayton
