This year for her anniversary, my pal and I got my mom a thermostat as her gift, however my mom is one of those people who is actually difficult to buy for.
Usually she just goes out and buys herself whatever she wants, and I am not actually sure why she has not purchased a modern thermostat for her apartment before this point, even though I am excited that she hasn’t.
That’s because it ended up being a nice idea for an anniversary gift for her. I was over at her apartment for supper after church on Sunday, and we started to notice that the apartment was heating up in the afternoon sun. I mentioned that I was getting too hot, and my mom said that she had turned the thermostat down already so it shouldn’t be warm in the house. But as my pal and I ate supper and watched the ball game that was on TV, it got hotter and hotter in the house. I told my mom that I thought there was something going on with her Heating, Ventilation and A/C system and she said that there was something wrong with her outdated thermostat. She just sighed and said that she thought it was about time to change the thermostat in the house. She told me that she had been putting it off because she did not want to have to deal with it. She said that she did not want to go and purchase a modern thermostat and she also didn’t want to have to install it herself! That’s when the light bulb went off in my brain and I knew that that was what I was gonna get for her for her anniversary this year.
