My dad goes out of town all the time for work.
So when he is gone it is just my mom and I at the house.
I really don’t mind spending time alone with my mom, she really is my best friend. However, when my dad is gone he expects me to take care of everything around the house that he would normally do. I didn’t realize how much my dad really did around the house until he was gone. One thing he really wanted me to do was to change the oil in our furnace. I had no idea how to change the oil in the furnace so before he left he showed me how it was done. I was pretty nervous that I was going to mess up the furnace while he was gone and my mom was going to have to call a local HVAC company to come out and fix the problems that I caused. So I paid attention to what my dad was doing and saying so that I would know exactly what to do. After he left, it was like all the information that he taught me went out of my brain and I had to look up a video on how to change the oil in the furnace. Thankfully, I was able to change the oil without having any issues or my mom having to call a local HVAC company. I know my dad would have been really upset with me if that was the case.
