I feel like we’ve had this conversation before, but out of curiosity what do you keep your thermostat on? In our other house it needed to be at 68 to be comfortable, but here we find that 64 (Sometimes even 62) feels warm. I guess it’s number of baseboards and the placement of our furniture? Usually around 74 when it's hot out (my ideal is 74.5...75 is too warm but I get cold at 74, lol) and during the winter, 68-70. |

The room with the hot tub is apparently called “The Sexagon.”

wow, I come in and rattle off our thermostat statistics but we're actually talking about swingers! Hi! In the 20s here, I'm actually wearing a hat today. I dropped the kids off and made a Target run, chatted with my mom for awhile, vacuum-dusted the air vents, and am about to head out to get the kids and take B for a haircut. Oh, and I'm going to treat myself to a wrap from my favorite deli that has a drive-thru kiosk near our house, so I don't have to get out of the car  |

Hi girls. I had the craziest complicated day at work today, full of very sad situations for students and my head is still full. Ds is still not feeling well, hopefully he’ll feel better by tomorrow. My MIL will come to my house tomorrow which is awesome, I’d hate to put the kids on a bike if they’re not feeling great.

Hi all! Nothing like catching up and alternating between swinger club stories and thermostat settings. Totally normal.
I worked from home this morning because Colin had a delay, then I came in. I kind of wish I hadn't because I forgot my watch and because I came in so late, I had to park pretty far away and take breaks crutching to the elevator banks. And it was insanely cold, so I was feeling uncomfortable AND pathetic. But I had to present to my team and felt the office made for a more professional backdrop than my couch, so it was probably for the best.
I don't know if it's positive thinking or what, but I tripped over the door jam between the garage and my basement, landed right on my bad foot, and NOTHING. It felt a little tingly but I screamed in anticipation of pain that just didn't come. I'm cautiously optimistic that I may be on track to heal quicker than average - I mean someone has to, right?
DH and I are probably going down to Miami for a few days in mid-March for my birthday - any recs?

My in laws got back last night. I was secretly hoping my MIL would ask to keep the kids Friday. She just told me they have plans Friday but she wants to keep them Saturday night. EVEN BETTER!

Oh and my thermostat is at 68-69 during day and 64-65 during the night or if we’re not home. We only have central heating in our living room, kitchen and ds’ room. Dd has a small wall heater.

I just made blueberry cornbread muffins and a big pot of black bean and sweet potato chili.
The house smells so good.
