Still can't think of a birthday present for my husband

I have about 2 weeks left but I'm starting to get stressed out. He is THE most impossible man to shop for and I always have to come up with 2 presents at once--one for his birthday and then one for Christmas a couple of days later. I have an idea for something small but that would probably be better as a stocking stuffer. He always says "don't get me anything" but I know for a fact that people with December birthdays are very cranky about it when people don't acknowledge them so I never take him at his word on that. It is pretty bad when the person who lives with you cannot think of anything to get you for your birthday! THAT is how hard he is to buy for!

He still needs a shoulder replacement. His family has bad bone genetics! (He's already had a hip replacement at the age of 41) He did come to my gym once this fall for Strongman and he had a great time. He pulled/pushed the Jeep with my sister and me. (if you were on facebook you would have seen it) He finally admitted that my gym workouts were "fun". But his shoulder is still bone on bone so he needs to have that replaced before he can really do anything. (Believe me I'm trying!)

what are his hobbies ? interest ? after reading your response to another , might i suggest some calcium related gift, like a gallon of milk and perhaps a dairy cow to complete the set.

@NJChicaa - give him a subpoena to appear before the bedroom court? free pro wrestling classes for a month? have an action figure made in his likeness? (no, wait. you are his action figure) buy him a pet rock? membership to the "no gift a month club" for a year. (renewal is free)

@Plethos No I can't do that. Everyone wants something on their birthday. I just have to come up with an idea. . . *smoke coming out of my ears*

I know what my husband wants and needs so even when he says don't get me anything I still get him what he wants. I don't buy him shoes or clothes because that's something that he busy for himself and he would never wear anything that he dislikes. It's hard to find clothes and shoes that he actually likes unless I make him choose and I pay for it.

I hope you figure it out. Day tomorrow is my anniversary and I have nothing, just nothing for a gift for my hubby.
