The grand romantic gesture

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The wife goes up for a nap and I decide to be a good hubby and do a grand romantic gesture.

I shower, shave and make myself peresentable.

She likes a nice fire in the fire place, so I clean up the front room, grab a comforter put it in front of the fireplace. Next I grab a nice candle light it up to get a nice scent in room.

I go over open the flue turn on the gas and start the fire.

So it's time to wake her up I'm going to grab a bottle of wine and some cheese I walk over to the fridge and then I sense that some thing is horribly wrong...

The flue was previously open and I closed it! The smoke is rolling back into the house. Before I can run back every smoke alarm in the house goes off. The wife bolts out of bed to a house filled with smoke and me in running around in my boxers. There's so much smoke we have to pull the smoke alarms off the house current and then pull the batteries.

We had a good laugh after the commotion died down.

She gave me a back rub by the fire as a start to a wonderful evening!

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for this story.

I was just lamenting something utterly foolish and silly I had done; that had no consequence except to become a funny story. . .to me.

Glad I'm not alone.

So, you were showered and shaved and smelled like a forest fire? Sounds sexy to me. When can you come over and start a fire in my fireplace?

It's comforting to know that the best laid plans can go awry.

Sorry, the missus won't put me out on loan...

Hey there, Heroic!

Long time no talky...you won't make that mistake again.

Just think of all the ROMANTIC ideas you've come up with since then to add to this one!

HUGS!!!

There was a time in my life when every time I went to put my arm around my wife in bed (to cuddle) I whacked he in the forehead with my elbow. Kind of takes the romance out when she is unconscious.

Tomorrow is my wife's and my 21st anniversary. For this year's present I made a couple of montages about our history together. One is a humorous look at our sex life together (how we met, how we grew from naive youths, to now), with a couple of hint about our future. To create the other I scanned more than 300 pictures of us through the 24 yrs we have been together (dated 3, Married 21) and created the montage using the song we danced to at our wedding and a couple of other special songs. It is sure to bring tears tomorrow when I give it too her.

Last year I wrote a series of stories for her that reminiscence a couple of special events in our history. (See the Erotic Stories thread titled Our 20th). In addition I created a 6 part card (in PowerPoint) targeting special moments in our life together and how we have grown, learned, and lived.

The total cost was about $25.00 for the software.

Enjoy
