Saturday morning
Bryon is already busy working on the greenhouse project. My husband and I argued for months over this project. I wanted a greenhouse and he wanted a hot tub. We finally came to an agreement when an acquaintance of his from school turned out to be an architect. Through his friend we designed a greenhouse with a hot tub incorporated in to one corner. Last year Mark's bonus was more than enough to sock away a tidy amount and afford the greenhouse, yes with a hot tub. I found myself trapped in to go along with the plan.
The Greenhouse was completed three days ago and looked even better that I imagined. Bryon was still working on the hot tub and planned to have it finished by today, thank god.
Here's how it is. I am in hot water and I am hoping that the tub is my way out. Now, I never really liked hot tubs, mainly because they never really did any thing for me. I always felt like a chicken in a stew pot. But, I needed a way out of my predicament. So Jamie and I had been scheming for weeks on this plot. Today we implemented our plan!

. It all started back in February...
The plans were finalized and "ground breaking" for the greenhouse project was to begin in the spring. Shortly after this my attitude toward the project changed, drastically. This is a journal of what happen to change my mind.
Chapter 1 The Storm
You see it was about that time when I found myself caught in a terrible snowstorm, which was bad enough, but my husband Bryon was out of town and I was stuck with no idea of what to do next. My best friend Jamie was fortunately out that afternoon and drove up behind me in a vehicle much more equipped to handle the snow. We left my car sitting in the snow and drove to her house. When we got there she made some coffee and we sat and talked. She suggested that we let Fred her husband handle the problem. Fred showed up fifteen minutes later.
Laughing at my situation he said, "Your not alone I saw a dozen or more cars stuck on my way home." Fred called a towing service and after twenty minutes came into the kitchen. "Well" he said "The best they can do is tomorrow morning."
Jamie and I just looked at each other. Then I looked from Jamie to Fred.
"Well who is the unlucky soul who will volunteer to drive me home?"
"In this blizzard" Jamie said. "Have you looked outside in the last ten minutes?"
I pulled back the drapes and looked out the sliding glass door in to the backyard. The snow had pile up significantly. "Oh Dear! I have to call Bryon he is flying in tonight." I punched in Bryon's cell number.
Hi Bryon.
Hi Sweetheart, I'm glad you called!
We are in the middle of a blizzard here.
So I have seen on the news. Are you all right?
I'm fine. Where are you?
S
till at the airport. All flights are cancelled.
No flights out?
Nope, I am waiting for a room now.
My car got stuck at the bottom of that hill by the shopping mall.
Oh? You ok?
Oh yes, Jamie picked me up. The snow here is bad.
Thank Jamie for me.
Fred called for a tow truck but it won't get there until tomorrow.
Where are you two?
We are at her house, now.
Well, stay warm and stay safe.
Yes I will.
Jamie saved you a long cold walk. They just called my name. I have to go.
Ok dear, hurry before they give the room away.
I love you.
I love you too, Hon."
I will see you tomorrow hopefully. Bye!
Bye
I hung up the phone. "Bryon had to run. They called his name for a hotel room. He is going to be stuck there at least over night."
Jamie smiled and hooked my arm. "Shall we make some dinner?" I smiled. "Bryon also said that I needed to thank you saving me from a long cold walk."
Jamie smiled. Together we started putting together dinner. I whipped up my special garlic mashed potatoes and Jamie not to be out done made Steak Diane. We were preparing a small feast. Fred just smiled as he came through the kitchen humming. When the dinner was nearly ready Fred opened the doors to the dining room.
"Ta Da!" He had laid out the table in high style. "My contribution to this evening festivities." A bottle of champagne was chilling in an ice bucket.
Jamie and I looked over the room settings. "Now Fred you know we are having Steak Diane." Jamie said.
"Yep! the Champagne is for dessert. I have a very nice Cabernet Sauvignon to complement your lovely Steak." Fred leaned over grinning and kissed Jamie on the cheek.
"Ooooh" Jamie giggled and bounced up and down. "Well Ann, since this is my house I
will
do the servicing! Be a dear and help Fred finish in here. I will be right back." I should have known something was up when she winked at Fred.
While we were preparing dinner Jamie and I discussed our men and how couples could fall in to a rut when it came to sex. Bryon was a great in bed but lately we seem to have fallen in to the same routine. It was always good but sometimes lacked a spark.
Chapter 2 Dinner
A couple of minutes later Jamie called from the kitchen. "All to the table! Fred pour the wine for us, please dear."
Out from the kitchen strutted Jamie in a French maid outfit. Now it was my turn to laugh. The top had thin straps across the shoulders and short sleeves loosely attached with a black tight fitting blouse, white ruffles covering her breasts. The bottom was a very short skirt in black. Under the skirt Jamie was wearing white ruffled panties that showed just how short the skirt was.
