  1. #31
    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.

    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.

    Yes the heat has been on for the last few days, high 90's and almost 100.

    But it's a dry heat.

    We do, too....My aunt from Kansas used to visit us between Christmas and New Year's and used to joke how we can have all four seasons in a week here in Texas!!!

    today we turned the heat on for a little bit just to get the chill out of the house but we only turned it up to 68...

    Nope it was 43 here today and I loved it. Wasn't feeling too well so I worked from home in my PJ's. It was heaven. I so enjoy the cold. Hot chocolate, a good book, a blanket and a kitty on the lap.

    Not yet. It's still been in the upper 70's and low 80's during the day, and we're used to it getting cool at night. This weekend is going to be cooler though (high of 65 on Sunday) so I may have to drag out a space heater or try out the fireplace if it stays cool. I'm not turning on the furnace until I have to!

    Been a nasty summer so we've varied from the furnace in the morning to the a/c at suppertime since August. We light the fireplace every morning now to get that cold dampness out of the house. I find gas heat not as dry as electric which we had before. We've had frost for the past month in the mornings and lost out garden.

    We had to turn our heat on yesterday! It was so cold, it's only like high-30's to lower-40's right now. Brr!
