I’ve consistently been so amazed & impressed by my wife Kim.
But the fact that she is going back to school to get her Master’s degree is most impressive indeed.
This is on top of working full time & being a mother to our two youngsters, and like me, Kim works full time inside the commercial Heating & Air Conditioning of an office building. We’re both so lucky to be working in fields that Kim and I enjoy. For her to go where she wants to go with her career, it took graduate school, since her supplier is paying for it & my superb friend and I live in a school town, it seemed like a no brainer. But Kim and I also knew that this sort of commitment would come with a lot of change. I was legit willing to do whatever I could do in order to support my wife’s goals. To that end, I’m doing more around the central a/c of the house to free Kim up more. That means doing the cleaning, the shopping, most of the cooking, the laundry & all of that. The youngsters have even helped out by getting rides to after school stuff & being better about picking up after themselves, however yet, Kim and I faced a challenge immediately when it came to having a quiet place to read for my wife; The kids and I all did our best to keep it down but it’s not like my superb friend and I live at a Borders. So my superb friend and I ended up clearing out the old room at the end of the house. I put in a desk & even had the Heating & Air Conditioning supplier come out. They installed a small ductless heat pump for heating & cooling in the mud room. The fact that it’s all the way on the distant end of the house & sealed off from the noise made a substantial difference.
