My husband and I were cleaning windows together yesterday. We have the double-hung 26 that you can pull forward and flip（翻转），allowing us to 27 the inside and the outside surfaces.
My husband was 28 one window --- and it popped out of its frame! Well, our 29 is for sale and the last thing we needed was for something to 30 .
He was so 31 and tried with all his strength to get it 32 together, using a few less than pleasant words (I am sorry to say). After twenty minutes he still could not get it 33 . That's when my 23-year- old 34 told his dad to 35 for a minute and he would try to fix it with me.
It's amazing how you can see things more clearly and do things more 36 when you are 37 . He and I fixed the window in three minutes! I called my husband in to see! He couldn't 38 it!
I know this isn't really a gift 39 , in a way, it was. My son 40 my husband, to leave to cool down, and 41 him from the worry for a moment. And my son fixing it with me was a 42 to me, because I saw him as a man 43 the kid he always seems to be in my 44 .
Calm is good. Breathe through difficult times and maybe even take a break from stressful times. Return with a clear mind and things will usually 45 much better!
