Dear Pat, How is it going? thank you so much for permitting me to stay at your house all weekend I really enjoy sharing my spare time together. Unfortunately, I'm writing to you, because, now that I am chilling at home, I realized that I left my coat at your house. I would like to tell you that I can't wait for our next meeting, but I have my driver's license, and my credit cards in one of its pockets. As you know, I'm gonna travel
this
week so I need my identification to board the plane. Just in case you don't remember what it looks like, it's my beige coat made from polyester and buttons at the front, and one sleeve is damaged. I think that I left it in the guest room's wardrobe or maybe on the couch, I don't remember. If you agree, I can pass tomorrow morning for your house and pick it up. I can get up early or at the best time that works for you. Please let me know once you find it and what time we can meet. Cheers, Brad.
