Yorkie Kisses are the Best! Donating Member | I keep mine at 68-70 but after the summer bills of over 300 for the air conditioner nothing compares to that - and while my husband must have the air on or he'll pass out - - it drives me nuts running the air or heat that much so right now at night it's pretty cold in my house but - thanks to the girls new Nighties -we're ALL set ...I don't worry about them like I did last year always covering them up with blankets - the nighties keep them nice and toasty - I know cause I'm always doing nose checks lol |

I keep mine on 55 when I leave during the day so Buddy is ok and when I return up to 70. I can't stand to be cold however in the bedroom I put it on 55 and open the window a couple of inches. I like the bedroom cool and bury under the covers. Buddy does not like covers I try covering him and he gets up and moves so I guess he will have a cold butt this winter. Carol & Buddy | |

| We have a pellet stove, and last year I only turned our heat on once. I love our pellet stove, keeps the downstairs toasty, but the bedrooms stay cooler, which is how I like to sleep.

| 70 most of the time for us. I hit it up to 72- 73 in the mornings to get the chill out. I HATE the cold- I freeze (and bitch) all winter.
