I’m the Heat Nazi in the house and have been trying to stretch the amount of time we went without turning on the heat as long as possible. After suffering through more than a week of mornings at 61 degrees or lower in the house, Nic turned on the heat tonight. I have it set to 64, which has been the natural high in the house on the colder days this week. What I remembered about the heat is the cost, what I forgot about? How LOUD it is! Also, how tiny the register in our bedroom is and how every room in the house settles into it’s own temperture range, which of course never corresponds to what I want that room to be!

So here comes winter…I am very much going to miss our $22 gas bills. Not looking forward to the months where they will be in the high $200s!
