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 - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t ...
