The other afternoon at work people were talking about motorcar mishaps and expenses.
Somebody assertively stated that they never swerved to miss squirrels if they run on the road.
Most people in the room agreed with the statement, although I actually didn’t. They talked about what a waste of space squirrels were and I was aghast. At that point, I had to chime up and say that I had many pet squirrels growing up. You see, when I was growing up my great friend and I had the designated Animal Sanctuary in the town. My friend and I were consistently bringing an destroyd and abandoned critters. It was a entirely fun childhood for me, although I bet it was a disaster for my exhausting mother. When I think about all of the cleaning that she had to do to keep up with the pet hair and dander floating through the air, I shudder and pray for my Heating and A/C system. I can’t imagine how strenuous it was for our central heating and cooling system to keep up with the amount of pet hair in the air. If my Dad was doing things properly, she must have changed our air filter every two weeks. My friend and I had so many assorted pets running around that the air often smelled of critters and you could literally see the dust bunnies riding the air currents around the room… Our Heating and A/C struggled often. It entirely wasn’t the best air quality control or most efficient air temperature control in our house. It’s strenuous to say whether the pets or the bad Heating and A/C system came first. I remember our central heating and cooling system breaking down many times as a child; as an adult I can understand why.
