I had to. I didn't realize that it would get as cold as it did last night. It was only 42 when I woke up. I know, some of you will think I'm nuts but I was freezing this morning. I waited for the temp to rise but it hasn't, so I finally turned the furnace on. I can't stand to be cold!
Coming close. I enjoy the 50's and 60's and not hotter, but the 30's and 40's are a bit much. I'm going to have to wash blankets this weekend so I can add more to the bed. The dog has switched to sleeping under the covers half the night, when she stays the whole night you'll know how cold it is.
Ummm, yes. We've also had the fireplace on every single morning.
Tempted, but not yet!! I think the warm weather is now history for this summer tho!
The highs recently have been in the upper 80s and low 90s so no heat needed here yet. We still have the A/C on:D IT was a little nippy this morning though, maybe 60ish.
Still using the AC:D
I was tempted to last night, but I put an extra blanket on the bed instead. Chilly nights, but still in the 60's in the day here.
Oh yes, one or two weeks ago because temp drops a lot during nights.
Not yet. I did get up in the middle of the night a couple of nights ago and put on warmer pajamas though. :o
Started using the woodstove in August. It's been on pretty much non-stop for at least three weeks now!
I almost broke down this am to do it! Jonah told me he was cold, and when I asked him if he wanted the heat on he said, "yeah.."! But, instead, I put him in warmer clothes, closed the windows, and moved on.
It is OCTOBER! Can't we have ONE month with neither the AC or the heat to complain about? LOL.
I do have a lot more bedfellows of late....:D
We did last night. I couldn't believe how cold it got, but also Cadience is completely cold so I wanted the trailer to be warm for her. I think I set it on 72
Not yet. It's kind of cold and raw out today so I have a feeling I'll be putting it on soon. I'm trying to tough it out. :D
we had gone out a couple weeks ago for a few days and the house got soooo cold... so a few days later I had the heat all set up in case needed... and what do you know we´ve had sooo much hot lately..:rolleyes:..
it seems this weekend the temps are actually dropping so whatever happens I´m all set...:D
It's getting quite chilly here too, so I've put three or four of my radiators on. They go from 0-5. I have them only on 2 now. ;)
Yep, my arthritis can't stand the cold!!! It's been down in the 40s here at night lately. :)
This is the perfect weather right now. We do not need the A/C or the heat for the time being. But it is supposed to rain tomorrow and Saturday. Although, I'm hoping it doesn't get too cold.
I have turned mine on for a few moments and then thought about the expense. I really just took "the chill off" the house and then shut it off. The cats were thrilled to have a little heat.
In the cold winter, I use the minimum amount of heat but use an electric sheet (goes under a regular sheet) to heat my bed while I sleep in it. I usually have the heat on in the living room (very low temp) and then nothing in the rest of the house, as the kitchen applicances usually keep the kitchen warm and my bathroom stays warm since it is on inside walls.
I usually do not spend much money on my heat, thank goodness. Since I live alone, there is no one to complain about the freeeeeezing temperatures! The cats just sleep under the covers with me at night and plant themselves on the pilot light area on the heater. We ofen have sun out around here and that too, helps heat the place during the day.
I feel very sorry for the folks who do have to spend a forturne heating their homes.
Also, I live in a building (former country store) where I live on the top floor and two tenants live underneath. They usually have their heat cranked up - thus heating my floors.....they, in general, keep my place tolerable temperature wise. I hope they keep up the good work this winter, again!:):):):D
Turned the heat on yet? Oh how I wish! It is horridly hot here. How homesick I am!
No heat on yet here. Temperatures have been cool at night 45-50 but not enough to turn heat on. Our house is very well insulated and actually the a/c was kicking on early in the evening last night. It was set at 75
Still using A/C here.
Oh yes, since 2 weeks!!!
We have no control over our heat. The management turns it on when they think they should, while the rest of us freeze. Once the heat IS on, we have no control over the temp. They told us if it gets too hot in our apartments, to open the window. Talk about a waste of fuel.
We have the heat in Hannah's room on since she refuses to keep the blankets on at night lol and she has a little cold right now so i gotta keep my baby warm.
but other than that no. I love to have my bedroom nice and chilly and just snuggle up under our nice warm comforter. I did have the close the windows today as it was getting a little too chilly in here... but no heat yet... just a snuggly blanket on the couch :) My heaven on earth LOL... snuggled in a blanket on the couch.
This is my favorite time of year. the heat and humidity is gone and there is just the right amount of chill in the air.
That completely sucks...is that even legal?Quote:

No, not yet. It has been chilly in the mornings but not bad. The kitties find
the warm sun spots as usual & I have the pups to warm the bed at night.:)
If it turns rainy & cool, I probably would turn on the heat, but I do love
lowering my heating/cooling bill. I'm ready for fall.:)
Nope! Apartment has been in the mid 70's during the day and mid 60's at night. Outside temps have fallen into the 50's and 40's. Just tossing on extra blankets at night. :)
I changed the filter on my furnace and vacuumed out the registers. I only turned it on long enough to make sure it works, but didn't let it run. I'm holding out until I absolutely have to run it.
However I did break out the heated pet bed today. Cats have been shoving each other out of it all day trying to get their turn. ROFL:p
It's still in the 90s here! The cooler is running 24/7 in this house.
We had our furnace running this morning. The thermostat is set very low though.;)
We have to turn the heat on during the nights as it nearly hit the 30s last night. I like the temps around 65-75, any cooler and I feel cold, any hotter and I feel hot.
With the price of oil???Quote:
Anyone turn their heat on yet?
I may NEVER turn the heat on! :eek: :eek: :eek:
Still too hot here for that....but, my electric bill was less, so I guess the A/C isn't kicking on as much as it did before! It is definately fall...I noticed our grass isn't as high as it usually is on a Thursday after a weekend mow......
Nope, A/C still running here and that is set at 75. Will probably have the A/C till the end of October if not longer. I'm in the Tampa Bay area of FL, an hour north of Tampa. Still quite warm around these parts. :)
Our furnace has been on for a month. Typical. Of course, there have been days where I so wanted to turn on the air conditioner in the afternoon, too. We have very extreme weather ... not only from season to season, but from morning to afternoon.
Hopefully not until November or until Mz Logan's cute widdle nose gets colder.
I put away the shorts but am still wearing t-shirts and sandals! I'm sucking in every teeny weeny bit of warm sun I can!
Yes the heat has been on for the last few days, high 90's and almost 100.
But it's a dry heat.:rolleyes:
