A Surprise Delivery . . .

Back in the office yesterday after the holiday weekend and mid-morning I was surprised to receive a small padded envelope delivered by courier. It was from V . . . the keys to his apartment!!!

I'd mentioned during our evening last week, that J and I were finding it more and more difficult to find “free time” together now that the children were getting older and staying-up later. I was moaning that in previous years we’d "made" time and had occasionally left the children with one or the other of our parents and managed at least one weekend break away together. But that this year J felt we couldn’t afford it.

V’s note with the keys said “a mistress such as you should have more than just the keys to my heart! Enjoy a weekend away with your husband.”

I telephoned him at his office straight away to say thank you and he said I must tell him in advance so that he could warn his cleaner not to turn-up whilst we were there, but that otherwise I was free to use it to "get away" whenever we felt the need.

When I got home last night and showed my gift to J he got very excited and was immediately on the phone asking his parents if they could house, and children, sit this weekend !!!

Best wishes - Edith
