My wife and I wanted everything to be perfect for our son when he graduated from high school.
We plan to have a huge pool party in the backyard.
We invited everybody that we knew and had the event catered. We spent thousands of dollars on the event. We invited several of our elderly family members and they were mostly inside of the house while everyone else was at the pool. When the AC broke down, I was caught off guard. I really didn’t plan for any problems like that and I did not know how to react. I felt like the whole day was ruined when the AC unit broke down. My wife told me not to worry and she started shutting down parts of the house and closed some of the AC vents. She sent me outside to keep my son out of the house. She contacted a repair service with an emergency technician. It was still during the daytime hours, so we didn’t have any problems getting someone to help us out. In less than an hour, we had a repair technician at the house. Unfortunately, the AC repair wasn’t that easy to fix. We found out that the unit needed to be replaced. They couldn’t do that job in a few hours. It had to wait until the next morning when they could order the right equipment and prepare for that job. I didn’t want to send everybody home early, but I definitely had to tell all of our family members that were inside of the house. It wasn’t going to be very comfortable in a couple of hours. I thought they should have a heads up.
