It's Irrational

A personal story in the experience: I Hate Seeing Lights On When It's Daytime
A nother one of my biggest pet peeves is having the lights on in my house in the daytime. My husband knows this but no one else might not know. As a child, this didn't bother me but now it does.

When I was younger, I would be guilty of turninng on the lights in the daytime and afternoon. My step-daddy, Charles used to come in the room and say, "Why do you need the light on when there is sunlight outside?" I guess, he did it for energy reasons.

Now, it bugs me and it feels like the beam of light is on my skin and feels so uncomfortable. I rather the sunlight from outside to light up my house. I have no problem with sunlight. I guess because it's more natural.

I just moved two weeks ago and I've been walking around turning off lights because they seem to be on everywhere and really getting on my nerves. It's funny because I would always tell my kids to turn off light at my other home but for some reason I feel like it has been all I've doing since I moved. My kids have lights on in their room and theyhave the nerve to have their closet lights on, Kitchen and den lights on, bathroom lights on, living room lights on, along with tall lamp lights on in the living room, Kitchen lights, I'm going nutts but the funny thing is at night they turn off every light in the house and then I'm walking around turning on night lights because I can't stand a totally dark house lol.

Just thought I would mention that for some strange reason it has been bothering me.
