This was my dad. LED lightening kept me from following in his footsteps.

My Dad posted a poem on the light switch when I was growing up:
“Nothing can brighten up a home,
half a much as children will.
I realize it more & more,
With every month’s electric bill.”
Funny thing how I can remember that!

I had to show the grandkids where the key was kept to unlock the toilet paper dispenser roller so as a fresh roll could be installed.

My parents said the same thing for years when i left the lights on- “Do you own stock in Con Edison??”

Sounds like my father. He used to time our hot showers when we were kids. If he felt we were in there too long, he’d shut the water supply off.

Lol. When I come home after dark my wife will have every light in the freaking house on and she’ll be sitting at her computer downstairs with half of the lights down there on too. I’ve slowly replaced all the old bulbs with LEDs so I don’t sweat it so much. Nothing will ever change her so I just live with it.

They have lights? They are lucky. Growing up we lived in Darkness, learning to navigate the house with a series of clicks and extra sensory perception.

More and more the BB is less of a parody site and more a reality report!
At least with LEDs we can let it go now...

If he really wants to save electric money, tell the kids to shower at school. Electric water heaters draw more than the whole house of efficient lights.

I had to give a similar lecture on how to refill ice cube trays. I feel for that dad.

I’m thinking about replacing switches with timers.

My mom HATED when we turned the overhead lights on. It had to be the lamps only. I always feel the need to turn the ceiling lights off in a short time but it’s because I’m short and can’t reach the bulbs when they go out. (I’m scared of tall ladders living alone).
