The hubs and I use to fight over the heat and air and now he left his son here for pure punishment because I have to argue with him just like I argued with the hubs. The difference is him don’t pay any bills. Keep your hands off my thermostat.
Keep your hands off my thermostat
I like heat. If you have been around for a while you know I keep my heat on year round. Yes, I have a heater on in the summer and I rarely keep my air on in the house. No worries I don’t sweat. I live around trees and I have fans so that keeps my house pretty cool. In the winter I keep my heater on in my bedroom at night. My son thinks he pays bills around here…
Me: *opens one eye* *why is my upstairs so cold…..goes to check my thermostat and it is on 72 air
Me: *calls the boy* Get your butt up this stairs. Did you touch the air?
Son: Me?
Me: No you
Son: Maybe Zaza touched it. Why do you always blame me for stuff? She is bad to you know
We go back and forth for about 2 minutes
Me: Don’t touch my thermostat you and your sister. Ain’t none of y’all paying bills around here.
Son: Mom you aren’t the only one that lives here you need to be respectful of others who stay here
Me: you are right. I should have better manners.
I wait until they went to bed and blasted the air on 69…and then I waited like the evil mother I am
Son: *gets up in about 2 hours* Mom Mom it’s so cold can you please turn the heat on
Me: Nooooo I want to respect your need for air so suffer. *evil laugh*
I have my heater on in my room so I was warm and toasty.

February 7, 2019 at 1:12 amI think i’ve said it before either on your blog or on FB, I would PASS OUT in your house. It’s 61 degrees out now. The house is kind of leftover chilly but it was a warm day. Would you have the heat on? If so I would DIE.

February 8, 2019 at 7:19 amLet me tell you in my mommas house growing up that was a big NO No to never touch her thermostat. Even as an adult if I am at the house I will not touch it now!!

February 10, 2019 at 5:59 amIt’s unusually cold in Southern California, so I have been keeping my heater on more often. I wish I had central air in my house! I guess he won’t bother the thermostat anymore

February 19, 2019 at 12:20 pmThis is so funny. I remember as a kid always getting fussed at just like that and never understanding why my parents would be complaining about the bills. Until I started paying these bills.
