Just when you think you know someone...

My FIL and I are polar opposites in politics, religion and any other aspect of living on this rock. I thought that I could predict his behaviors and the things he does especially what motivates him to do things. Well, I was wrong.

Hubby and I have been debating what to do with a little extra money we had, we had been thinking of getting a cheap laptop for me to use for school or a grill for him or a patio set for the family. Finally when we settled on a grill for him AND patio set for the family our car breaks down and requires some pretty hefty repairs. Now, we decided to go ahead and get the grill and see what parts of the patio set we can get.

FIL tells me at dinner last night that he decided to wipe his laptop and let me use it for school. He goes through the steps of wiping, formatting, loading and getting everything on it for me. This is just the sweetest thing! It will really help me because I have some breaks in my day that I can use a laptop to get some work done. He says it is because I was willing to give up a laptop for me so the family can have luxury items is the reason why he chose to do this. I have to say this is really one of the more thoughtful things anyone has ever done for me. Thanks FIL
