Mom was expecting her sister to arrive any time and was stressing out.
During the day, the AC system stopped working.
It started blowing less cool air into the house. By noon, the cooling unit went silent and mom began to panic. She wanted everything to be perfect for her sister, her partner and their kids. But, the day wasn’t off to a great start. Mom’s sister phoned to say they were about 2 hours away. Instead of flying, they’d opted to turn the trip into an adventure. The kids had some attractions they wanted to see along the way. So, my aunt and uncle rented out a mobile home for the summer. They’d drive to our home and see as many wonderful attractions as possible. Since modern mobile homes are quite classy and have amazing cooling systems, they knew the trip would be fun. Anyway, my mom wasn’t pleased with the faulty AC and phoned the AC repair company for help. Luckily, an AC repair person was available to fix the issue. I told mom she was lucky since most AC companies can’t send out an expert immediately. One has to wait several hours or the next day for an AC repair person to come by. About 30 minutes after hanging up the phone, mom was at the door welcoming the AC repair person to take a look at the AC unit. He did a splendid job of noting the issue and fixing it in record time. It seemed what started as a disastrous day was ending on such a positive note, and mom was thrilled.
