I suppose our husband is the kind of guy that needs something to obsess over.
It is just part of his nature, so instead of trying to confrontation it, I try to use encouragement and positive reinforcement to guide his in the right direction… When he got obsessed with exercise, I made his a little up-to-date home gym in the spare room. A few months later that was done, the gym was kneeling unused, and now he was into collecting books. I converted the up-to-date home gym into a up-to-date home Barnes and Noble, and I even went so far as to get a dehumidifier for the room just because it helps maintain the condition of the books. I have no reason to suppose he will be into books longer than he was into exercise, however it doesn’t matter, there will constantly be a use for a dehumidifier in the house. In this part of the country, the two of us more or less keep our cooling systems running for ten or eleven months a year. It is not only legitimately hot much of the time, however also legitimately humid, and thus numerous homes have an extra dehumidifier in them, just in case, and modern Heating and Air Conditioning systems include a dehumidifier in them, so you don’t need to go buy another 1… unless you do! Humidity makes the hot and cold temperatures suppose a lot hotter than they legitimately are, and with a dehumidifier you can change the soggy damp southern heat into a dry midwestern heat. Thanks to that dehumidifier, the Barnes and Noble is now the nicest, coolest room in the whole house!
