I always wanted my own workspace, a place specifically for me to get some peace and quiet, and a place to work.
No offense to my family members, but sometimes I just didn’t want to be around them.
Then I would go to my mancave, my tool shop. I bought some of the best tools I could find, and started woodworking. I was working on making a coffee table for my wife, and the design was coming out perfect. Although I knew this was going to be a long and hard project, I was prepared for it, especially since I knew my wife would love it. As I worked, I swore it kept getting hotter and hotter. I finally stopped when sweat began to soak through my shirt, I didn’t have a thermostat in my tool shop, so I had no idea how hot it was. But when I stepped outside and realized that it was cooler outside than my own home, I knew something was wrong. I also knew that I would be unable to work in this boiling room. I went and checked on my a/c which was still working, but cold air was coming out. I knew it had to be a refrigerant issue. I debated fixing the issue myself, but since I had little experience I figured that it would probably be a pretty bad idea. I went ahead and called a HVAC tech to come and replace the cooling refrigerant. Luckily, since that was such a simple issue, it was able to be fixed fairly quickly, and I could go back to crafting the coffee table for my wife.
