    When it was just me, the heat was about 60 (yes, I do mean 60 ), and the A/C about 76-78- just enough to take the heat and stupidity(LOL) out of the air.

    With Jones, the heat is set at 70 (ugh, that is so warm), and the A/C usually at 78ish.

    I cannot wait until I can count on Jones to keep covers on his little body at night. Yippee! Maybe in 2 years. Until then? I pay, pay, pay.

    You spoiled brats with your AC's! If I had one, I'd probably put it on 22 ... and 18 in the bedroom.

    I just looked at the temp. on my alarm clock in the bedroom - it's 29!! However, it looks like the thunderstorm is coming.

    In the winter we don't set it at all, sometimes we might turn a space heater in one of the room but it's never really cold enough to set the heat.

    In the summer we keep it at 76 when we are at home and 80 when we are out. (But when Alexa isn't at home I usually put it at 74 or 75! ). I wish we could set it cooler but in Az it just isn't economical. The power comany suggests keeping the a/c at 78 but that's too warm for me.

    With the weather often being 110+ and our vaulted ceilings I wouldn't want to see what the bill would be if we kept it any cooler!

    A/C is usually about 77-8.

    We don't usually turn the heater on in the winter but if it gets really cold, it is set for about 60 degrees. Right now, we have the air conditioner set to 82 and keep the ceiling fan in the living room and the bedroom on at night. It's not too hot and keeps the kitties comfortable.

    In the winter we are set at 62, I love it cold. My poor neighbor, when she comes over she does not take her coat off.

    Since building the new house we now have central air and right now at night I put the 2nd floor to 67 and then turn it up to 70 when getting up in the morning. The first floor right now stays off and we open the windows, we get a really good cross wind at the house. Next week it is supposed to be in the high 90's so I figure we will keep the A/C set at 70 downstairs.

    In the winter I have the heat at 68 (70 when it is a really cold spell) and in the summer I keep the air at 78 most of the time (when there is a particularly hot spell I turn it down to 76 for a short period of time).
