My wife and I are very social beings.
Perhaps it’s due, in part, to not having any children.
We were both very committed to our careers from the second we both graduated university. I think this is one of the things that attracted us to each other. We were driven, goal oriented people who wanted to be the best in our respective careers. This left little time or consideration for starting a family of our own. We didn’t even own a dog until we were both in our forties. The lure of that perfectly HVAC controlled office with all the perks and business trips was just too tempting. So, we kind of semi-consciously decided that all of our friends and extended family would be our substitute for raising a family of our own. We went at this just like we went at our careers, full steam ahead. Our place is awesome because it sits in the middle of about 40 acres of pasture and woods. We have a big barn with a covered pavillion. This is the center of so many gatherings. And, it is just the best to bring all of our people together to enjoy an weekend. The barn even has an HVAC heating and cooling system which allows for the good times to continue even if the weather isn’t the greatest. Our last party was a big one. However, it started to rain just as the festivities were starting. We threw tarps over the stuff that couldn’t fit under the pavillion or go in the barn. When the rain stopped, someone threw a tarp over the HVAC condenser cabinet. I didn’t see it happen. But, the effects were pretty bad. The tarp choked out the HVAC and it seized up. It was pretty much a total loss.
