I was surprised when my coworker came into the office on Monday morning and told me that her husband was going to start working in my parents basement the following weekend

My mom and dad wanted to remodel the basement, but they didn’t have the first idea how to start the project. My Dad was thinking about doing the work on his own, but I told him that would take months or even a whole year. Remodeling a huge room like that isn’t the type of job you can do on your own. They wanted to remove a wall and make the room a lot bigger. They wanted to turn the concrete floor into a finished project with carpet and new windows. I thought it was a great idea, but the whole plan was going to require a permit and a contractor. I recommended a construction company to complete the job. I told my mom and dad that a husband of one of my co-workers owned a construction company and worked on these types of remodeling projects. I gave my mom and dad the phone number for the company. I wasn’t sure if my mom and dad were serious about the project, but they called the construction company a few days later. I was surprised when my coworker came into the office on Monday morning and told me that her husband was going to start working in my parents basement the following weekend. They must have forgotten to call me with all of the excitement. I want to visit my folks later after work and they showed me all of the new plans. My mom is especially excited about the project, because she gets to pick out new items like carpet, grapes, window dressings, and paint.
