As long as I don't have to break ice in the toilet in the mornings it's about right
No way my wife is going to believe that I did not post that. I tell her if she doesn't have to break a little ice out of the commode we're wasting heat. Mainly heat w/ a small woodstove that is probably too small for the house (leftover from when I lived in a much warmer climate and a smaller house). Like to keep it about 65 in the living room (where the stove is), which makes it 63 or so in the other rooms at that level of the main house (very open floor plan). Probably 60 or even a little less up in the bedrooms. Most of us like to sleep cool, so that's OK but one daughter likes it warmer. Her bedroom is right above the woodstove, so I'm thinking of putting a grate in her floor so she can steal some of that heat. The bathroom that we use to shower in the morning is way out on what used to be a porch, so neither the propane or the woodstove help it much. We try to get it up above 60 w/ electric heat before the first shower, after that it's warm and humid. Really did see ice one morning, but my above comment was mainly a bluff since I don't particularly want the pipes to freeze.
Wife got smart and moved the thermometer to the kitchen, so now it's probably 67 or so in the living room when it says 65 in there (unless she has the oven on...) Our schedules have changed this year, so the house is empty most of the day. I'll probably be talked into using more propane to "take the chill off" while waiting for the woodstove to heat up -- just before bedtime.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
