leather bodice
-------------------------

Three women: one engaged, one married and one a mistress, are chatting about their relationships and decided they needed to spice up their love lives. All three agreed to wear black leather bras, stiletto heels and a mask over their eyes that evening with their respective lovers.
After a few days they meet up for lunch and compared notes.

The engaged woman: "The other night when my boyfriend came over he found me with a black leather bodice, tall stilettos and a mask. He saw me and said, 'You are the woman of my life. I love you.' Then we made love all night long."

The mistress: "Me too! The other night I met my lover at his office and I was wearing the leather bodice, heels, mask over my eyes and a raincoat. When I opened the raincoat he didn't say a word, but we had wild sex all night."

The married woman: "I sent the kids to stay at my mother's house for the night when my husband came home I was wearing the leather bodice, black stockings, stilettos and a mask over my eyes. As soon as he came in the door and saw me he said, 'What's for dinner, Batman?'"

I got the front all mowed and trimmed yesterday got to do the back today but it is much smaller and flat so much faster.  Plenty of other crap to do around here too.

Insurance adjuster called me yesterday and his estimate for all the hail damage to the house was about $25,000.  To give you an idea there was $1400 to the wood fence.

Amazing how much damage a storm can do, still parts of Baton Rouge with out power from Monday's storm here.
