My family is sort of weird plus I think that fits with myself and others being sort of the weird middle child. I don’t exactly fit with my siblings. There is the jock brother who is gorgeous plus can do no wrong. Then there is the wild child younger sister who genuinely could be a seriously hot mess in a few years. Then there is me, the girl who would rather hang out in the a/c alone reading. I’m not messed up plus I don’t need a shrink. This is the message that I’ve had to repeat near constantly to my folks. But I think that they are coming from a location of care plus compassion. Still, they can be legitimately parenty about stuff that gets on my nerves. Like I said, I’d genuinely rather sit quietly in the a/c plus read. If I am moved to do something else, I do. Still, I’m always getting the sixth degree about what’s bothering me. It gets so frustrating. So a single afternoon I told them that I genuinely didn’t like the heating plus cooling in our house. This is tplot by the way. But I just was answering another stupid question with an equally stupid response. The next thing I know, there is an HVAC business in the house. The HVAC specialist was genuinely there to turn our existing HVAC equipment into a zone controlled HVAC system. This means that there are now 6 separate zone control areas in the house with their own thermostats. I was sort of stunned. Then when everyone loved it plus couldn’t stop talking about how great zone controlled HVAC is, my parents said it was all my idea. How completely random is that?
