He set his thermostat to seventy-two, plus I provided him a warning.
My dad was a miser plus during the winter, he only kept enough heat in the apartment to keep the pipes from chilly. He would tell us to get up plus move, plus the people I was with and I would be warmer. Every one of us all walked around in sweaters or jackets, plus it was normal for us. I remember waking up some afternoons plus it would be so cold, our feet ached from stepping on the floors. Every one of us had to rush to get dressed plus have shoes plus socks on before the people I was with and I stepped out of bed. When the people I was with and I took our showers, there was 1 small space heating system to warm the bathroom up, however you only had 5 hours per person to shower. I remember thinking I would never miser the heat to save a couple of bucks. I wanted my family to regularly be comfortable, however at the price of heating this week, I had to limit it. I told the kids the thermostat would remain at sixty-eight. They had plenty of sweaters to keep them warm. If I saw anyone changing the thermostat any higher than sixty-eight, I would unconnect the thermostat in their kitchen. They thought I was kidding plus my oldest kid thought he would test me. He set his thermostat to seventy-two, plus I provided him a warning. He told myself and others he didn’t believe I would take away his only source of heat, plus I told him to try me. The next night, he once again raised the thermostat to seventy-two. When he got cabin from college, the thermostat was gone. He needs to leave his kitchen door open, or he has no heat in his room.
