It’s a surprise, honey My new husband was working the second shift (4 p.m. to 12 a.m.) at GE one night when he called long distance to tell me that he had bought a gift for me. Boy, was I excited! It had been several months since my birthday and no other holidays had come around, so I couldn’t imagine just what the occasion was. I begged and begged and begged him to tell me what he had, to no avail! “You can just get it when you wake up in the morning,” he said, nonchalantly. Normally I wouldn’t even know when he got in. But that particular night I cooked tomorrow’s dinner, washed two loads of clothes and folded his uniforms for the week. I was a superwoman that night waiting for his arrival. Finally, I heard the truck door shut. My heart started racing when I heard him dragging something up on the back deck. The back door opened, and there it was: an ironing board!
