Yes it Did!

After my morning cup of tea and breakfast I got started on my job as a remote city inspector. It mostly consisted of checking on locations that were having some troubles and seeing if they could be fixed in an easier manner than contracting out work. For the most part, I got to stay home and meander around the web and keep up with my daily shows.

Clark finally came down freshly cleaned up and grabbed his cup only to fill it with coffee. “Good morning sweetie. How’s work going?” He asked kissing me with his coffee breath mouth and his silly brown beard scratching my face. It still felt good to be appreciated though.

“It’s okay, I’m thinking I may want to look into a different job here soon with the winter right around the corner. I don’t want to be driving in the snow all the time. Would you be okay if I took some time off?” I asked. To my surprise my husband nodded, “I agree, if you want I could also help look with you.”

This felt weird, between his monthly trust fund checks and my current job we barely managed to keep our heads above the water. He had a crazy inheritance and he constantly used this as an excuse as to why he didn’t have to work.

“Well what if I said I wanted you to find a job and work?” I asked, surely that voice was joking right? “Anything for you my dear, I’ll start looking here after my cup of coffee.” Clark said as he left the table I was working at and went back into the kitchen. This couldn’t be real could it?! I called back, “Hey hun… Would you rather we have a nice SUV that we drive currently or would you rather have a small sedan to save on costs?”

“A SUV silly, you just mentioned having to drive in the snow. What’s with that odd question.” He asked as I sat jaw agape looking out to our drive way. Instead of the old beat up car that should’ve been there, a brand new black SUV was there.
