Hi Jan!
I know I told you on the phone about Chad's visit, but here are the details: He will be arriving at the bus station at 2pm on the 5th of August, he hasn't seen your new place so can you please pick him up from there. He's got to get the 8 am bus back here, so make sure that he is up and there, I don't want him to miss it, and you know how forgetful he can be.
Thanks again for putting him up for his vacation, I'm sure that he will love it over there. I'm only sorry that I couldn't join you two, but I couldn't get off work.
Chad likes cornflakes and fresh OJ in the morning, that is of course if you can get him out of bed. Honestly, sometimes I wonder how he can lie in there all day. Now that he's 18 I don't mind him drinking beer, but be a honey and make sure that he is sensible.
I have told Chad that he is to help out around the place and not to be rude to you. I don't think that he would be rude, but if he sits around when he could be making himself useful, kick his ass into touch, OK?
I know that I have said all of that, but he really is still a nice boy, and no doubt he'll turn a few girls heads while he's there. Again I've told him to spend at least some time with his Auntie, 'cause you aren't a boarding house.
Darren has asked me out again. Can you imagine the nerve of it? I've turned him down three times in the last month. I know that you've told me I need a man, but I at least want one with a good figure. Darren had to stop for a whole minute after jogging over the street to ask me, how is he going to keep up with my needs?
That reminds me, make sure that Chad does plenty of exercise. I know that it's his vacation but if he lays off it will be hard on him when he gets back in training. Nothing heavy, unless you need him to carry something, just get him to run around the block every day or something.
Oh yeah, do you remember how I was telling you how Debbie Clauda was having an affair with her boss? Well her husband (Ricky Clauda, from high school) found out, so they're going through a divorce. Have you found a new Mr. Right yet? I told you that you were too good for him but would you listen?
Can you get Chad to ring me as soon as he gets to yours, I'll tell him to but he'll probably forget.
Thanks again for having him.
Love Rhonda xx

Dear Rhonda,
I'm sure that Chad will have a good time here. If he needs exercise there's the pool-yes it was finished the other day. The workmen have just finished clearing up and they won't be coming 'round no more. I don't know whether to be happy that I can swim in my own pool, or sad because I don't have all those muscular men around the place!
Oh sis, how can I tell you how good it is to have a pool of my own. And there's no-one who can see it so I might be tempted. You know, to go skinny-dipping, like we did at that mountain lake all those years ago.
I'm not sure what Chad can do all day here that he can't do at your place. But the change of scene might be good enough. And like you say, I'll have to get between him and any girls.
Apart from flirting with the pool guys my life has been sex free. Honestly, folks around here are starting to feel sorry for me. Hey, I could take Chad down to the bar and pass him off as my toy boy!
I remember Debbie, didn't she used to be Debbie Smith? All of the boys figured she was the easiest lay in the High School. And this is with you around!
There's no juicy news from these parts, it's mainly about old neighbours not getting it up. Probably because they can see what their getting. Am I being bitchy today or what?
Gotta go.
Love Jan xxxxx
(only 2 kisses? Don't you love me no more?)
