This post title refers to the weather..... in my house. So, backtracking a little bit... this summer when I was uber pregnant and walking laps around the inside of my house to try to make Micah come out, I had some air conditioning issues. Sometimes I would set the temperature lower because I was hot (hello, fat and exercising is a bad combo for temperature control :P) and the thermostat would decide that it simply did not want to tell the ac to turn on. It would do this until Nate got home and then it would innocently begin working again so that I looked even more convincingly like the crazy pregnant lady that I was trying to avoid becoming.
Well..... it's baaaaaack. Our downstairs heater refuses to turn on! I don't know if the thermostat is misbehaving again, or if something is wrong with that unit, but I woke up to a house that was a brisk 63 degrees and refuses to heat up. As a result, Micah and I are camping out upstairs today where the thermostat has no qualms about keeping me in 72 degree heaven. As I walk up and down the stairs to fetch toys, food and various other items, I get halfway down and feel the cold overtake me. On my way back, I sprint to the middle of the stairwell so that I can feel the delicious warmth gently slap me across the face... mmmmm, warm :) Anyways, I'm hoping this is a tempermental thing and the munchkin and I can relocate downstairs shortly.... I'm not sitting in 63 degrees all day... I'm not built for that :P

What's wrong with 63? That's my thermostat setting in the winter all the time. ;) Except when I get sick... then I bump it to 70.
Rett won't let me take it higher than 65 in the winter and lower than 78 in the summer. I'm not exactly sure how to even work the AC...
Please reomove this post before your mom sees it. I would say that I'm in Rett's camp, but my thermostat ranges are more like Winter - 61 and Summer - 81. Of course if someone else will pick up the power bill, 72 in the day and 68 at night is pretty great year round.
We are 78 in the summer also, but I am much better at sweating it out than freezing it out :P Plus now that I stay home, I spend considerably more time freezing than when I was working... it makes it harder to stand :P
I will say that our bill was $40 last month and $55 this month. Hard to argue with him :)
