During those chilly spells, we'll turn on the gas fireplace in the living room, in the evening. Otherwise I tell DH to put a sweater on, or get off the computer and move.
Heartless he calls me!!

My legs cramp when they're cold so I've put a heater in the bedroom for the last couple of nights.

Old bones get cold. Fact! I gave up the morning it was 35° and set the thermostat at 64 and still was discovered a few days ago sitting at computer with sweats, long micro-fiber robe and MITTENS on, not to mention socks and my Wicked Good sheepskin slippers. The utility bills here just eat up every cent you have.

Lynnie, love that one. Does he have his own quilt?

We rarely get snow. I've been in Fl since 1980 and it snowed for 10 min in 1987 and 20 min Dec 26, 2010. I don't do cold well. Stay warm

It is 63 in my living room right now... but I am still leaving my windows open at night and running the ac for a few hours in the afternoon. We added an extra blanket to the beds and deal with the morning chill. I hate having to run the heat at night and ac during the day.

I now live near San Francisco. I used to live in AZ. In AZ it was 60's in the winter and 110 to 120 in the summer. This summer in S.F. we only had the air conditioner on once, but we've had the heat on twice. In the mornings it's been low 60's. Too cold for me right now. It finally warmed up for about a week and it's mid-September.

To bad we couldn't have bottled some of the heat from this summer that we all complained about for this winter. I just ordered my first load of wood and hate to think about staring the wood furance up. So I hold off as long as I can. If I jump the gun and start it to early and it gets warm I just waste wood ($$$) and it isn't easy to start and shut down. It also heats my hot water durning the winter so I can shut off my water heater. They say wood heat heats you 2 times once when you are stacking it and then your house.

We cut our own wood - so guess it heats us 4 times!

Cutting - loading truck - stacking @ home - then heating our house.

OH man all the talk of winter .. we have had more rain where I live (western slope of CO)than this town has seen in a very long time. I guess I am ready for the first snowfall ( I have brought the sweaters out, washed em and folded em and put em on the shelf to be worn), we are currently fixing up the outside and the fireplace for winter, got the plastic handy, just gotta do a weekend of it. Gotta go get some firewood for the ol fireplace that we use day and night, cheaper than gas or electric for sure ! Just kinda sad to see summer go for sure !
