Now that the winter is here I have my thermostat set to 70. That
sometimes seems a little low. When I push it up to 71 it seems a
little warm. The place I notice it the most is when I am setting
at my computer desk. I have on the wall behind it. The desk does
not cover the vent.

Put it at 69º and buy a sweater with the savings.

Or 68!

But NEVER 65. That's too cold. I've been through that with my parents.

Actually mine is at 65º right now. That is my usual daytime
temperature. At night it goes to 62º In the evening I go up to 67º and in
the morning right before we get up, I have it go to 69º

Mine is set to 64F now (morning), 59F at night, and 67F in the
evening. If we're cold, it gets cranked up but we usually don't.
Sweaters and sweats are the norm. The cats have coats on. ;-)

BTW, our frost line can go down beyond 7' (broken mains down that
far).

It is snowing and 30 degrees out now so I just chunked another piece of
wood on the fire

That sucks! I had another nice day to work outside. It was a
glorious 62F here in NW Vermont. I think I got sunburnt though.
It's only supposed to be 50F tomorrow, but that's enough to finish
my stain and trim work.

It is time to get the wife's snow tires on though. ...or I'm going
to be driving her to work.
