Phin wears shorts and a t-shirt to get the mail, put out trash, etc. until it literally gets down to freezing. Mooch is the same way and is the only kid without a coat at bus stop. (I pack one, but won't fight about it with her.) Yet I am always cold.

He loves it when people come to the door, and there's snow on the ground outside, and they people are all like, "Aren't you cold?" and he can say, "Well, it's so hot in here! I have no choice." ~insert eye roll~ And personally, I don't want him walking around naked.

He went out and bought one of those ridiculously hard-to-program ones, installed it, and left me to set it. His mistake. I set it to the warmer temperatures I like (he's like Tom in that he likes it freezing) and locked the controls. He doesn't know how to change it, but I do.

Except I can only turn our thermostat up in increments of a degree at a time - because apparently it goes into some kind of panic mode if you try to raise it too many degrees at once and then our electric bill goes into panic mode - which then sets our bank account into panic mode. *sigh* I'm off now, to turn it up another degree.Gigihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05467164195744234746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910185897876102936.post-71482082518575611462011-12-05T16:30:58.383-07:002011-12-05T16:30:58.383-07:00That is hilarious!

So you would probably die in our house. But in the summer we set the AC to 23 C (74 F).
