How Low Do You Go........

....before turning on the heat?

I'm trying to hold out - - it's 68 in here right now.

I love to sleep when it's cold, but just sitting around it's a bit nippy on my nose.

Portable heaters scare me. I'm sure there are safe ones, but it seems winter fires are always started by space heaters.

That's due to peoples' carelessness - you're a safe responsible person.

get a good brand

Most of the heaters now have tipping safety features. Mine will shut off the moment they start to tip over. It's nice with the animals, since they knock things over.

... and many have heat sensors that will shut down if you throw a towel or something over them.

Re: How Low Do You Go........

It's pretty cold here and has been for a couple weeks, so my heat's been on.

My furnace needs work, and I'm waiting on the landlady to call him. In addition, I have to get weatherstripping tomorrow to line my front door with.

My front door wasn't staying shut unless I used the deadbolt. They came and realigned the door so that it stays shut, BUT.....now there's a crack at the top and air is just flowing through that crack.

I'll have to call them again to fix that. Surely, I can have it stay shut and no crack too.

My front door is warped, so the bottom is open while the top is sealed.

But the inside door has quite the gap in it. I'm glad I'm moving out of here in a few months!
