I have yet to turn on the heat. I know a but crazy. I try to wait as long as possible to save money and do my part to reduce greenhouse gases. We keep the heat pretty low all winter long too so the longer we wait the warmer 65 deg F feels. I'm also inspired by the Yarn Harlot who has Furnace Wars each year with her family.
But dang I'm cold. It's currently 58 deg F in the house. I'm wearing a hat, scarf, sweater, fingerless mitts and warm wooly slippers. If I was moving around and doing some housework, ha!, I might be warmer but I'm not. Now my nose feels cold and the key board is sucking the heat out of my fingers.
It's less than 60 deg F in the house. Why does it seem so cold? If this were spring we would have the windows open and enjoying a lovely day. It may be warmer outside. Let me go check. Our out door thermometer reads 50 deg F and the newspaper says it's 41 deg F. So no it is warmer in the house. I think I'l go make tea. I'm going to hold out a bit longer, atleast until halloween. I can do it. I can but I need some long underwear.
LOL... You need to knit yourself one of those Suess Thneeds! I broke down and put the heater at 60. I do pretty well at night under the blankies, but during the day -- ack! I get so tired of freezing. But I'm baking a lot which helps warm the house up pretty good.
