Boy am I ever the lucky dude.
- My mother in law just moved about 15 minutes away.
I tried to pretend that I was cool with all of it. But, I was quaking in my boots at the thought of having that woman with in driving distance. She’s just not the most pleasant person to be around. However, she recently lost her husband of 45 years. Well, she’s family and that’s just all so I had to simply suck it up. My wife really wanted to be close enough to her that she could see her every other day or so. The estate left by her husband wasn’t very substantial so she will need to be looked after a bit. We were able to find her this little 2 bedroom house that will suit her needs just fine. There are a number of renovations that need to be done at this little house. The mother in law wanted a sun room put on first so that ate up a chunk of money. Unfortunately, the HVAC system then immediately took a dive. And there is simply no saving it whatsoever. Over course, it fell to me to handle getting a new HVAC unit. I had the HVAC guy out here to have a look about replacement ideas. The guy was organized and seemed to really know his business. He thoroughly measured, inspected and walked the place. We decided on a unit but there was a catch. It would not be available for about a month. This meant a month of mom in my home. But dude came to my rescue by putting in portable a/c units inside.
