This year for his birthday, both of us surprised our dad with a modern air conditioning plan for his house, but my dad is a one of those gentlemen who will make do with whatever he has, and he never likes to spend any extra money and both of us all joke about the fact that he easily has thousands of dollars hidden in his mattress.
- He is just one of those old school types of guys, and whenever both of us were growing up when something broke down, he would say something about how both of us would just have to go along to get along.
My siblings and I never actually understood that saying, however my dad always had a lot of unusual things that he would say that did not make any sense to us, and anyway, this year, our dad has been having a lot of troubles with his central air conditioner plan and he mentioned that it was easily time for him to replace it, although he did not want to spend the money. Whenever he said that, our siblings and I all looked at each other with knowing looks. As soon as he mentioned it, we knew that that was what both of us were going to get him for his birthday this year! This year, he is going to be 68 years old, and both of us figured that he should actually get whatever he wants for his birthday. Three siblings and I are all going to go in on the modern central air conditioner plan and split it three ways. I think that our dad is going to be ecstatic when he realizes that both of us are getting him a brand modern high efficiency air conditioner for his birthday.
