I know that sounds like a "dumb" thing to say, but we live on the third floor and
you know heat rises so we generally only have to turn heat on IF/when it is bitter
cold AND the wind is blowing. No wind no heat needed.

Not to mention since I am post menopausal I tend to run a bit (a LOT) hotter than
most "normal" people and my husband complains that I try to freeze him to death
most of the time.

I just tell him to stop wearing shorts in the winter or when it is cold.
By contrast, after the 14" of snow we got two weeks ago, the high temp here in St. Louis today is 80 degrees and the landlord at the office won't turn on A/c until late may no matter the temp. Yes, Quilty-Louise, heat rises, and I'm on the 13th floor. It's hot up here!
