Here in Bakersfield we have had low to mid 50's for a whole week or more, with nights down to low 40's. Our houses (at least the older ones) were not built for cold weather...we have little or no insulation. So, we have to run the furnace at 68 deg during the day and 64 deg at night. Otherwise the whole house gets too darn cold, including walls, furniture, everything. I wear sweaters indoors and out. I am hoping we get back to "normal", which is about 58-60 deg right now.
I sure could use some sunshine. We had a little today, but now it's cloudy and overcast again.
