Want to beat my head against a wall!!!!
I swear to God I am about to rip the thermostat out of the wall at home!
What part of "Put the damn thing on 74 degrees and leave it the hell alone." don't they fucking get!
If I didn't have HS I wouldn't give two shits WHAT they set it on. I'd just take a shower and get on with my day, and if I got hot and sweaty again, I'd just shower again.
But when you get up at 6am to get yourself ready for work and to get your kids ready for school, and you are standing there with rivulets of sweat running down your back between your shoulder blades, it is enough to drive you mad.
If my MIL and FIL were the ones paying the light bill I probably wouldn't say anything either. But due to the fact that taking care of that, and other bills, I feel like I should have a fucking say on what the AC is set on, especially with having HS. Getting hot and sweaty (along with stress) causes me to flare up in my spots. And either they don't get it, or don't fucking care. BUT THE SHIT STOPS TODAY! When I go home I am going to have a sit down with the MIL and FIL and just be like "LOOK, I have told you time and time again about my condition. I'm sorry if you guys get cold, YOU chose to have the thermostat put in YOUR room, not me...so don't make ME suffer for YOUR choice. IF I have to continue to wake up at 3am covered in sweat, while I'm in nothing but my underwear and no sheet....then I WILL see to it everyone suffers with me."
I swear I want to go in their room and snatch the thermostat off the wall and snip the damn wires with scissors.
And no to mention my FIL leaves this morning, AND LOCKS HIS FUCKING ROOM DOOR. This wouldn't bother me one bit, BUT...my MIL has already fallen a couple of times trying to get off the bed and such. And what would have happened if she had fallen and hit her head, short of kicking the door down (which I would love to do from time to time) we would have no way to get in there to her. And if she hurt herself, but was able to get close to the door, with it being locked, there is no telling whether or not she would be able to get it unlocked.
My FIL (having been an ex-con) is so god damned afraid that someone wants to take something from him it is fucking pathetic. He acts like the world wants what little bit of shit he and my MIL have. It's ridiculous, pathetic and downright stupid. He forgets, apparently, that my MIL's brother no longer lives with us, so he no longer lives in a house with a thief that he actually has to be worried about. Neither I nor my husband have ever taken anything from my MIL, so there shouldn't be any worries there. He's just a paranoid fucktard and my patience with him is running extremely thin. And for MY patience to be running extremely thin with someone, they REALLY have to be doing something. I always try to stay laid back, calm, and not sweat petty shit and not dwell on negative drama. But this man is really grating on my last nerve.
I mean..me and him were talking the other day..he said if/when MIL dies he's moving south..I told him stick around for (my kids) his grandkids...oh that was OUT..he said he's gonna move so far south it won't be funny. WTFH? What happened to family being everything...so my kids lose their grandmother..and then because of his selfishness they get to basically lose their grandfather TOO? My FIL has got to be the most self centered, self serving prick I have EVER had the misfortune to come across.
God help him when MIL signs control over to me. Me and her have already talked about it. MIL and my husband have already talked about it. And when that day comes, he had just better watch his shit is all I'm saying. Considering how he squandered the money they got from the fire insurance, and the fact he don't even have a clue how to write out a check, he don't need to be in charge of anything much less her finances. And god really help him if SSA deems her incompetent to take care of her finances..I'm the ONLY person in the house qualified to be her Payee.
Ah hell...lol

God that all sounds horrible! I HATE being hot, and I could understand it stressing you out. It doesn\'t help with your sleep (or lack thereof). This is why I love winter so much. No sweat, can be as warm or as cold as you want to be. Ooo and living with your In Laws... Gah can\'t think of many things worse than that. Maybe try taking yourself off for a night to the cinema by yourself, where you can sit in air conditioned comfort and watch something funny xx
