10 Year Wedding Anniversary Ideas?

Yes, I realize this question has been asked before and I did read a few of them but here is my situation: today is our 10 year anniversary and my husband isn't feeling well, we were going to go away for a night but those plans got shot. So, I need a romantic idea (other than dinner) or a gift idea. Please don't say trip to Hawaii - can't afford or give him a girlfriend - serious answers please. I've got 45 minutes during lunch to get a gift or make plans. and yes I realize I waited until the last minute but again we had plans to go away and they had to be cancelled so that was the original gift... And by the way I live in RI if that helps any.

Update:

My husband likes ATV riding, the Pittsburgh Steelers, movies, skiing, and relaxing.

PS He goes out with the guys when ever he wants - I don't stop him. We may be married but we are still individuals...

Update 2:

I've done the candle light dinner at home - any gift ideas going with the 10 year anniversary traditional or modern girfts? (tin, leather, pottery). Oh and he already has about 8 watches... All bought by me on special occasions

    Is there a cater-a-spa service there? You know, manicure/pedicure/masseuse/facial, to come to the house?

    Here's something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing: Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it! The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating ... you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle. Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard. Use graph paper, and pictures from magazines if you are not as good on the computer, and it will give it a homemade feeling.

    One of the best gifts I've received was a nice candlelit dinner at home, a burned CD of love songs picked out special by my husband, and a night of just the two of us listening and dancing to them.

    Congrats! I would say just the candle light dinner, wine and good mood in the house. If I was sick I would not want much more then that. Keep the going away plans when he gets better.

    You may think this is silly, although as a man myself, I think its a smashing idea.... Give him a note saying... "Free Pass for an evening of your choice to which you are free to go out with your mates, to wherever you choose, without a moan or a grumble from the one that loves you most"... Accompany that with a couple of beers & a take-away curry, & the man will be happy for another 10yrs

  • Has there been anything that he has really been pestering about? If so try to see if you can get if for him. If something expensive don't worry try to think of something that would sound great to give him on your anniversary. For a romantic dinner try the Cheesecake Factory in Brea. http://www.mapquest.com./
