Just in case anyone was wondering, I love Neal more each day. It's hard to think that's possible, but he continues to amaze me. He was in San Antonio this week for work. Low and behold, our tenant called to say that the AC in the condo wasn't working. Great. Since he was out of town, I had to call the home warranty service and arrange somone to come out to look at it. At first I was extremely frustrated and mad that I was having to deal with this. Then I prayed about it a little and had the revelation this is what marriage will be about. Having to do things sometimes that you don't want to. We're in this together so I put on my big girl panties and got over it. Quickly, I might add. Someone was able to come out last night. He was at the condo for 3 hours during this time I got to know our tenant a little better. He was stumped so he brought another guy this afternoon and had the problem fixed in about an hour. And it didn't cost an arm and a leg because of our home warranty. All is well now and we survived our first repair experience as landlords. Hope they will all be this easy and inexpensive!
Here's where I was going with all of that. Neal knew I was frustrated with the situation. He ended up coming home a day early. Thursday is my long day since I work both jobs. I had a killer headache after my last client and knew we had to go over to the condo tonight. When I got home, Neal had unloaded the dishwasher, loaded it back with the dishes in the sink, wiped the counters and swept the living room floor. Without being asked. No he doesn't do things like this all the time, but it was really appreciated today. We even got a piece of carrot cake to share after dinner tonight.
