clamrnguy, you have already fought half the battle and won! Make her a card and inscribe it with "You are my life, my love and my everything!" Get rid to the kids, if you have any, for a few hours; ask a trusted family member or neighbor to help out. Make a simple meal, even if it is only PB&J with water. Set the fanciest table possible: cloth tablecloth if you have one, best dishes, glasses, flatware, candles (used ones are okay) and fresh flowers (wild or from the yard is fine, you need not buy any). Set the mood with your favorite tunes. After dinner, draw a bubble bath and let the games begin! Tell her with your touch and your eyes how much you love her. When you're all done, don't just go to sleep, talk about nothing or listen to her talk (probably best choice); prop up her feet and paint her toenails. Go get the kids while she is drying. When you return greet her warmly with soft kisses; hold her if she wants until she falls asleep; get up early and clean the kitchen, bath and any other messes you may have made. When she gets up, thank her for not only a wonder evening but for being the most incedible life partner ever. Give her a security hug (remember when your folks hugged you and you felt nothing safe and loved?)and a warm kiss that says: "I'll miss you" before you both get back to the grind of a normal day. Hold her hands and look INTO her eyes, let your eyes speak for your heart; connect through touch. Good Luck and Congrats on saving your marriage.

thank you, you have helped the way i think about the aniversary gift and have given me the greatest ideas. i will do something very similar to this. things are not quite as bad as pb&j, just very tight, too tight to spend on anything but nessesities. i intend to buy her a gift later,but i'm not sure it will even seem as thoughtful as the one i give her without spending a dime. THANK YOU!
