Sometimes I worry about going to visit my family.
I know that everybody has complicated relationships with their kin.
Even when you get older, your relationships can be absolutely complicated and strained thanks to all of your shared history together. It is absolutely difficult for people to view each other in the present circumstances after 40 years of knowing each other under unusual conditions. This is why I regularly have to warn my spouse about my parents – they do not know I’m an adult. I think that is why they never mentioned their radiant radiant floors to me. Apparently, last year they went through a full oil furnace renovation when they tore out their forced air furnace and they installed radiant heated flooring throughout the house. I would have asked a lot of questions about their indoor air handling device updatement, had they told me that the heating, cooling, and ventilation system was being completely updated. Instead, I found out the tough way… When my spouse and I walked into their home I instantly observed that the heating was different. I asked my parents about their furnace and they finally told me about the radiant heated flooring, now, my spouse has regularly had a strange preoccupation with getting radiant radiant floors. I really did not want to provide her another reason to obsessively pester me about replacing are forced air furnace with radiant floors, but here all of us were, experiencing the most delightful indoor heating at my parents house. The funny thing is, my parents still would not talk to me about the indoor air handling device update… But they were more than happy to answer all of my spouse’s questions about the radiant radiant floors. Apparently they still see me as a child, however not her.
