When I turned My mobile on first thing this morning after I awoke, a message immediately came through - it was from My sub stating he had placed a small surprise in My letterbox for Me. As soon as I was dressed, I went outside to check My letterbox and sure enough, butch had given Me a National Geographic DVD called 'Zebras: Patterns In The Grass'. It is a part of a series the newspaper is presently putting together and I had already seen it in Melbourne when My father collected the series down there. I had missed the Zebra edition and was not able to get a copy for Myself so it was quite cosmic receiving the very same DVD I missed out on, by My collared sub and a most thoughtful gesture it was too *GRINS*. My subs and slaves are well aware of My love for zebras.

'Changeling' last night was fabulous and finished close to midnight. Clint Eastwood seems to like a bit of controversy and this film was no different in that regard.

By mid morning I realised I still had not arranged a time for maid marian to turn up for more cleaning duties and contacted slave tate on messenger. After lunch at 2.00pm was convenient for Me and as My daughter needed to come over so I could give her a hand with putting a portfolio of photos together, I decided to give My slave an extra job on his way to My house. To save Me from having to make a special trip to collect My daughter, he would already be on the road and making his way to My house and he could take a small detour to collect her for Me instead.

They arrived promptly at the appointed time of 2pm and as I was already making some coffee, slave tate was allowed to join U/us before maid marian changed and went to work. I am very pleased that maid marian knows what to do (after all the practice she has had) as I was very busy with My daughter and after telling My maid what cleaning needed doing, I had to let her get on with it without any further input from Me.

As maid marian finished each task, she presented herself before Me for the next instruction. Sometimes I noticed her straight away and other times she had to wait. I was so involved with assisting My daughter that time slipped away and it was already 5pm when My maid finished her duties and was ready to go home. As slave tate has been losing weight and is well under O/our goal weight again, he qualified for a pizza dinner which he could pick up on his way home. I am sure it made his day as well as not having to cook for himself for a change.
