    We keep our furnace set at 62 and I still freeze. But if you sit in our study it is rather cozy, the computers keep it warm in there. I sleep with an electric blanket because we keep the heat set at 62. If it gets to chilly we crank it up to 64........LOL

    I keep my furnace at 72-73 during the day and 70 at night. I run an electric heater for my bird. Have to cover the heat vent as the cats get too warm. Still need a cover or jacket if I don't move around.
    House did get too warm today, I baked 6 pumpkin pies, 1 cherry pie and an apple pie. Making dressing tomorrow to take to our cabin in the woods. Pies are staying cool tonight in the extended cab of my truck tonight. We always hope for a cold Thanksgiving, we use the trucks for refrigerators. Too much food for the fridge to hold it all.
    Happy Thanksgiving.

    I am a cheese head by birh and miss the snow. We have a small cabin in the mountains of NC but haven't seem much snow there either. I don't miss the long winters, just snow during the holidays. 74 here today. Sorry
