I appreciate my Dad so much, but we have been best friends ever since I was a teenager.
We never honestly fought at all, plus I knew that she was the Dad plus I was the child.
I tried to obey, plus to be honest, it was quite straight-forward to obey her because she was so kind plus straight-forward going. We have opposite personalities, so I know that easily helps too. I know some of my friends have similar personalities with their moms, plus they end up fighting a lot just because they are so much alike. My dad passed away about four years ago, plus my Dad has been doing quite well living on her own. I try to visit her as much as possible, something that cracks me up is that she keeps her dwelling super warm during the wintertime. It is literally eighty degrees or warmer in her house. I knew that she enjoyed a warm house, however my dad did not let her keep it that warm when she was alive… Now that she is gone, she keeps to her preferred temperature. I pour sweat almost every single time that I am there. I have learned to dress in layers so that I can take some layers off when I go to visit her. I cannot imagine how much her electric bill costs, however apparently, she doesn’t care. My partner has tried to talk her into turning the heat down a little because she cannot rest it, despite the fact that she always has an excuse why she wants it warm in the house. I appreciate my Dad dearly, even if she is deranged with her heat.
