What a weekend to be back home! Finally got my new thermostat and went to install it. She kept asking me to not mess with it because we had a busy day but I was excited to finally complete the smart home. Went to install the thermostat and was following the directions. Problem was, something happened and it blew the fuse on the control board to the furnace. Got on the phone with a friend who does commercial HVAC and he guided me to the issue. Oven was running and now we had no AC! Talk about a wife being pissed it was so bad you could feel the vibes in the air.

As I went upstairs to grab my wallet I heard her very softly say "I can't fucking believe this" but I didn't bother with it. She was not saying to me and I just walked out the door to go buy the new part after I opened the windows to at least cross breeze the oven heat out. As I was driving I started calling the home stores to find out who has a three amp fuse. She kept calling, but I was trying to find the part. Eventually she stopped and started sending texts to my phone. Notice the last part, she really thinks I didn't hear what she said.

All of them went ignored because I was legit busy. Had to save Easter from my own fuck up. When I pulled into the gate I answered her phone call. She was crying because she thought I walked out. I told her it was easter and I am not mad, just don't want to be sweaty unless we could be sweaty together. She laughed, and we exchanged I love you's. She was still upset when I got home and we hugged for a bit.

What got me the most is she was filled with dread over something so dumb. In which case she also tipped her hand. Took a few years to get to this point, but it's nice to know that you do reach the light at the end of the tunnel.

Keep at 'em boys, don't let feelz slow you down.

P.S.

Autozone carries three amp fuses.
