The heat is on

[carbonel]

I have officially acknowledged the turning of the seasons by turning the thermostat to the Heat setting. I had decided to do so when the temperature of the house got down to 60 degrees F, and that's what I woke to this morning.

The house smells a little dusty, but is warming up nicely. Which is a good thing, since in the process of trying to take a horse-pill-sized multivitamin with my coffee, I twitched at the wrong moment and ended up with hot milky latte all over myself, and am waiting for everything to dry after a hasty washing.

If we don't have a final heat wave, this will be the first year I manage to only go from AC to heat, not back and forth a couple of times.

We are still holding out

on turning on the heat in our new house. With the windows closed it holds heat quite well all by itself. May be a function of a smaller space. but our old giant Victorian also held heat quite well on the upper floors.
