We Keep the Thermostat Too Cold

our house is on freeze
a hundred degrees outside
I need a blanket 
I got outside to warm up
Fall asleep in the sun
with the cat

I keep mine at 75 year around. I love a warm, cozy house...period! I never was allowed to touch the thermostat (set at 68) when Deb was living. When she died I inherited it...now, I own the thermostat in my house, and it is going to be a warm, cozy house year around. Good luck!

I know that story well. I finally decided not to fight it. I just piled on more blankets and shivered.

I have to tell you I put it up and he pushes it back down. It's on FREEZE here.
