I yelled to him to see if he might want to help with moving the furnace
The other day, the delivery driver for the HVAC company was really late when he showed up to our house. My husband was supposed to be there when he came so that he could help move the new furnace into the garage and unload it. Well, the delivery driver took so long to get to the house that my husband was already gone for the day! I was not really sure what to tell the delivery driver because there was no way that I could help him unload the furnace. I had back surgery not long ago and I’m not supposed to lift anything over ten pounds right now. The delivery driver for the HVAC company was very apologetic about the fact that he was late, but he said that he could not help it. He said that the tire blew out on the HVAC delivery truck and there was no way for him to get there in time. I felt pretty sorry for him, but I did not know what to do because we really needed to get the furnace, but we could not get it out of the truck. Unfortunately, he did not have his helper that he usually has right along with him, either. I started to wonder what we were going to do and I thought we were going to have to reschedule. But then, one of our neighbors from down the street came running by. He was out for his morning jog and he waved at me. This guy is strong and he works out all the time. I yelled to him to see if he might want to help with moving the furnace. He was happy to help! He even said that he could forgo lifting weights that day because he could count lifting the furnace instead.
