I want to go to Wichita Falls on the weekend of August 29th and ride in the Hotter Than Hell 100. Problem is...it's my weekend to have the kids. I'd like to ask her to watch them that weekend, so I can go and do this ride.
Could you folks help me to come up with an E-mail that I could send her, asking her this, and at the same time...do it in a way that is 'appropriate' for our situation?
