My husband packed for me once- for our honeymoon- I was diagnosed with gallstones a few days before we married.....and felt very sick after the reception- ended up bedridden for 2 days, but recovered a little to fly out to tenerife for our honeymoon- in the meantime, my helpful caring husband packed the cases and cleaned the house- we had only moved in the house after our wedding, so it was just a question of putting away wedding gifts [I didn't find some of them for a week after our return] and hoovering up, etc
so I staggered downstairs on the morning of our trip, got weakly into the taxi, and slept through the flight. Once we landed on foreign soil, I was tons better - which was a shame- for a weeks trip, I had NO underwear [I know it was a honeymoon but] 3 nighties, a pair of jeans I had worn to decorate the house in for the previous 3 months, an old washed up t-shirt- a 'going out' short skirt, and a couple of pairs of shorts and a decent T-shirt, and a pair of white stilettos. WHAT WAS HE THINKING OF?! needless to say, we dressed very unisex that week, and I had to do a bit of shopping too! so, since then..............
David, your post made me feel all excited- well put!!
