I pledge 65 F during the day and 58 F at night
Chunky Chicken is running a challenge for five months of energy and money savings. The challenge is to choose a low heat temperature and then stick to it! This isn't that hard for us to do. We've already been sitting at 65 for about a month now and had already decided to keep it that way over the winter. This is a huge change for us since last winter saw it sitting at 70 on the low side! But, I've dug out (or am making) the kids sweaters, and layered several blankets on the kids beds. (One would also think the low temps would discourage the children from their proclivity for nudity, but it doesn't seem to be. LOL) There are flannel sheets on everyone's bed, and warm fluffy robes & slippers waiting to be slipped on in the morning (or evening as the case may be). Just yesterday Carey was complaining he was cold (not long after he'd been grumbling about the money situation) and instead of putting on one of his fleece sweaters and his heavy socks he mosied on over to the thermostat to turn it up several degrees! Grrr...
