But when I'm stressed I get cold, and yesterday I was super-stressed and it was only 58 in the house while the sun was still up. So when V asked if we could turn the heat on (see how well I have V trained? "honey, may I...?"), I sighed a drawn-out resigned sigh and said "oh, all right" while inside was going "YES! YES!! HEEEEEEAT!!"<BR/><BR/>Of course I would only set it to 64, and I only turned on the downstairs system (the bedroom was still over 60) but at least it was something. <BR/><BR/>So since you're like me, imagine having to endure a winter in an 800 sq ft house with four adults and two kids, including two young "adults" (V's daughter and niece) who were cranking the heat up to 80+ every time I turned my back so that they could lounge around in their spaghetti-strap t-shirts, thin cotton pants, and bare feet, and who copped a ferocious attitude even when I nicely asked them to keep their freakin' hands off the thermostat.
