Thread: Anyone turn their heat on yet?

  1. #1

    Anyone turn their heat on yet?

    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!
    Blessings,

    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.

    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 IT was a little nippy this morning though, maybe 60ish.

    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.

    Not yet. I did get up in the middle of the night a couple of nights ago and put on warmer pajamas though.

    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....

    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.

    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.
