When our oil furnace broke, the two of us had little to do however wait for the Heating, Ventilation & A/C company to arrive.
My hubby found an seasoned game in the attic where you had to put your hands in dark pots and find things inside.
It was something the two of us played when the two of us were multiple years old. Our youngsters thought it was a stupid game and didn’t want to play. They thought they were too seasoned for such childish games and wanted to play on their PCs. The two of us took their PCs, lit the fireplace, and made them sit and play the game. The eye rolls soon stopped and the two of us were all laughing. Our macho sixteen year seasoned kid didn’t want to play, even though he was the first a single to get squeamish when he put his hand in a bottle with some chilly goo, while looking for a bone. After the two of us finished with that game, my hubby put more wood in the fireplace and the two of us sat down to play some other games. An hour later, the Heating, Ventilation & A/C company showed up and he went downstairs to work on the oil furnace. Since it was daylight when the oil furnace died, no a single noticed there wasn’t any electricity. The daylight was shining, and the two of us assumed it was just the oil furnace. The Heating, Ventilation & A/C company tried to turn the light on in the basement, and that’s when I realized there were no lights on the stove, or the microwave. When the power came on and the oil furnace started running again, the two of us all started going our own way again. My kid turned off the lights and yelled that all because the two of us thought the game was over, he was still playing.
