I had meant that I didn’t have the most normal upbringing.
Most people these days has a couple of kids and spend all of their time shaping them into well adopted adults.
When I was growing up, my parents decided to have a whole litter of children instead. I come from a family of 10 children, and I happen to be at the bottom of the stack. Unfortunately, this means that there wasn’t enough time, energy, or finances to go around. One of the major outcomes of this crowded family was creating a strange preoccupation with indoor air quality and temperature control. This is because my parents never had enough money to take care of our heating, cooling, and air quality control system. We were not able to utilize our Central indoor air handling equipment very often in my house. Because everything was so financially strained, we never called the heating or cooling company to take care of our indoor temperature control equipment. Because there were so many opinions about the indoor air temperature, it was also a very uncomfortable living situation. These days as an adult I am absolutely obsessed with my smart thermostat and energy-efficient air temperature control units. I am always calling the local HVAC repair shop to install the most up-to-date heating, cooling, and ventilation system. I also prefer to keep my heating and cooling devices on individual temperature control plans. I find that it’s very necessary to have unique indoor temperature settings for each room. This is especially true since I continued the family tradition of having too many children. At least my 10 kids each have their own thermostat.
