But you are now up to $950 and a weekend of grief for a Summer of Cows and Fun.

Now to lessen the Blow, Valentines day is just 3 weeks away. If you can wow her on Valentines day then go out the Following Weekend and purchase the Kayak you could Eliminate the "Mom-in-Law" effect. The big Problem is that Valentines day is on a Tuesday so by the Weekend the "Honey your the Greatest" feeling may diminish, so I would suggest you go shopping for it on Thursday to take full advantage. She should still be feeling the effect of all the Ooh-ing and Ahh-ing from her Co-workers over what you got her. The longer you wait the Probability of you doing something to piss her off greatly increases.


Or you can suck it up buy one used on Craigslist or from the Want-ads.
wow! the dad fisherman really
