Tis a sad day when the warmest part of the crib is the porch... it's 35f outside, and "witches tittie" indoors. If you respond " just turn on the heat" I shall counter with "just pay my electric bill" ?
My heat is paid-- you can stay 10 days, initially--
That's why I love my small house two stories 512 glorious square feet I, keep it at 80 degrees. Even in the coldest weather my highest electric bill has been about $90
Here in Louisiana, since it is actually warmer outside than inside the house. I just open up the windows. I have to be energy efficient because I refuse to have a high electricity bill. Which usually stays between $110 to $120.
@Kattywampus69 Can we work on doing nothing all day-?
We have a damp cold climate in Scotland with heating requirements for around 7 months of the year, but on the plus side we do not need air conditioning in summer.
@Kattywampus69 Had a holiday on the outer banks, North Carolina two years ago. really enjoyed it. Great beaches and WARM seas, Also very historical, Roanoke Island was really interesting.
Wearing an extra layer of clothes, such as a jumper, can increase the temperature you feel by up to a few extra degrees. In addition to that, government research has shown that lowering the average temperature in your home by 1 degree can save up to 10% on your heating bills. In other words: putting on a jumper allows you to set the thermostat at a lower temperature and can save you over a $150 per year on your average heating bill. So next time, just try and wear an extra layer of clothing before you turn up the heating. [warmup.com]
Yes. Warm the body, not the environment.

@Byrdsfan Looks pretty
@Amisja, @Byrdsfan, @Moravian, @Kattywampus69:

@OwlInASack, @Amisja -
(Celsius*9/5)+32 = Fahrenheit
(Fahrenheit−32)*5/9 = Celsius
