I had been dating Ed for almost a year before I met his parents.
I met Ed shortly after I started Heating and A/C college.
Ed helped me with my studying and questioned me on everything I was learning. I never asked how Ed knew so much info about Heating and A/C technology, because Ed was learning the manuals right along with me. Now that I look back on that time, I realize Ed was often telling me what something meant asI was scratching my head. When I graduated from Heating and A/C classes, 1 of my professors invited me to take on an apprenticeship in his Heating and A/C business. I could not wait to see Ed and tell him about my modern job. I ended up calling his while walking out of the college and to my car. I don’t know who was more excited; me or Ed. I had been working for this Heating and A/C team for about three months, when he invited me to meet his parents. I knew Ed had made up his mind about becoming my husband. She put his ring on, and Ed and I headed over to his parents’ house. I almost walked back out when the owner of the Heating and A/C corporation I worked for came out. He greeted me and smiled. I looked at Ed, wondering why he hadn’t told me I was working for his father. Ed shrugged as if to tell me it was easier this way. I quickly realized why he was so smart when it came to fixing Heating and A/C systems and how he knew all the terms separate from looking them up. Ed was brought up in a family of Heating and A/C service techs, and heard all about it almost every afternoon.
