[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, my house is set to 71 and feels pretty warm. Sometimes, if I'm very hungry or tired, I will feel colder than usual and put my clothes on or move around to warm up. It sounds like the windows and doors are your issue. Can you put a curtain over them to help keep the cold air out?[/quote] +1 My grandparents in Michigan used to put some kind of heavy duty saran wrap over the basement windows all winter, and any other rooms they didn't use often, to keep out drafts. When I was a kid in Philadelphia we wore long underwear or at least an undershirt, plus long sleeves/pants, socks, slippers, and a robe. I keep the house warmer than my parents did - it was usually about 62 then, now we keep it more like 68 in part for the pets - and I dispense with the long underwear but use slippers and a sweater. But I do often get cold just sitting and working at my desk and have to get u and move around a bit.[/quote]
