LOL. I think I was in denial. Surely after painting all the walls, applying an epoxy floor finish, moving in ceiling to floor bookcases and filling them with fabric, wouldn't the temperature go up at least a few degrees? Having the lights on, iron plugged in, and the machines humming would raise it another degree or two?
My internal thermometer runs a little higher than my DH, so I like it cooler. All of my extremities (toes, fingers, tip of my nose) were warm, so I wasn't concerned. But after sitting there for a few hours, I felt it in my back. Maybe I need more "insulation" (stash) down there.
Anyone know the R value of fabric?
