Of all the birthday gifts I’ve gotten from my mom over the years this one is probably the most useful gift I’ve ever received.
I told my mom a few months ago that I’ve been suffering a lot with my allergies and told her it is probably due to the dust in my flat.
So she got me a HEPA filter for my birthday, which is a lot more usable than a tie or a pair of plaid socks. My HVAC system runs great but I had one of those regular filters in it and it was allowing too much dust to pass through it. So now it’s much better on my allergies with the HEPA and I have my mom to thank for that. I miss my mom and the walks on the beach at sunset as now I am living overseas and don’t get to see her much anymore. I could get a job at the local business back home but would rather live where I am now. I always thought those beach walks with mom would go on forever, not knowing that I would soon move overseas and miss the walks each week. I’ll go back for a month and work for my local contractor friend while I visit mom and everyone else. Hold those times with your mom dear because you don’t know how quickly they will turn into memories of the past. My mom still works part time for the HVAC company she used to work for but now only works about ten hours a week there.
