My parents owned a lovely house for many years, and I have so many memories as a child in that house. I wish that they did not have to sell it, however it was time. My parents are getting older, and they were not able to take care of the big, outdated house that they lived in. I offered to let them come live with me, and they readily accepted. They both knew that they needed help doing afternoon to afternoon task, and I would be able to help them. I have a finished basement where my parents live which allows them to feel independent. I check on them everyday to make sure that they are doing okay. They also share a garage with me which has been a point of gratifiedion. They are used to having an connected, heated garage, however my garage is detached from my house, and it is not heated. They have trouble with the cold, so they tend not to want to go anywhere because the garage is so cold. I told them that I would beginning their automobile a couple minutes before they wish to leave so that it is warm, however they know it is a waste of fuel. I particularly would like them to get out more, so I have been trying to heat my garage at least a little bit. I bought a kerosene heating system that I put in the garage. I turn it on early in the afternoon, so the garage is warm by the time my parents want to go out. I know it is toiling because they have went out quite a bit more since I started heating the garage. Their logic about it is funny, however I am cheerful that they are cheerful.
