Rustic furniture
Three of my super hyperactive nephews were sheepishly giggling near grandmom who was sleeping with mouth open and obvioulsy was deep in her sleep on her favorite chair. The unbearable heat no doubt make one sick’ tired, lazy and irritable and my grandma is not spared. She is understandably grumpy because she feels uncomfortable with the hot summer temperature enough to send her sitting all day on a rustic furniture she loved very much in her favorite nook in the house. She would always tell us. her grandchildren that that the wooden chair is cooler compared to the leather sofa in the living room which makes her sweat more.
Of course, they have airconditioning unit but rarely use it knowing how oldies are very energy saving conscious. She shuts off lights and appliances when not in use. And sometimes, it makes my mom freak out because grandmom is really hard to change. She sees to it that only 1 florescent light is lit up in the whole house to save on electricity. Such a spendthrift lady! No A/C even if it is uncomfortably hot, because she never worry much for she has her fave rustic chair given by mom last Christmas. Since then on, she makes it a point to request mom to buy only those cedar and pine furniture and her room looks more like a log cabin now.
Mom would always remind us to be gentle and understanding of her whims and caprices because she only have few remaining years in her life and she deserves to enjoy the comforts of life before it is too late.
Amen to that!
