Quote From: ritehere Marcia, do you have kids? I found myself asking the same questions of myself when I was raising mine. They would ask me why do I have to? and I would pause and have to ask myself that. Sometimes whatever it was I wanted them to do didn't make any sense, it was something I was told and I'd kept it as the "right" way to do things.
I used to have that same scruple about taking more than one shower a day. When I was grown up, I could see my parents' point, they had 7 kids and if we all started taking more than one shower a day, it makes a big difference in the water bill, not to mention the clean up afterwards. But for me on my own- it was OK to spend the whole day in the shower if that's what I wanted to do.
You should give yourself a pat on the back for figuring this out when you were younger!! We both have learned from Dr. Phil that most times we simply accept the things that we saw, what we were taught as fact.
Yesterday, I took 2 showers ... at the pool ... it was strange! but it was also so cool!!!
I hope your apartment has central A/C ... if it doesn't then make sure to get one if you two decide to buy a home. I don't sweat and have learned that the humitiy really does a number on me!!
