I've got you beat on the thermostat, dear...mine is set at 61! LOL! I live in sweat pants, socks and 'thick' slippers or moccasins, a turtleneck with a sweat shirt on top. however, I have mini blinds and toppers on my windows. after reading the posts, I'm thinking that maybe I should do curtains. I let the sun in during the day with my south-facing windows and close the blinds as soon as the sun crests the trees. do you think that curtains would make that big a difference? I snuggle with an afghan and the cats when watching tv or reading. also, do the 'swirlie' lights really make a difference? I have regular 75 watt bulbs in all of my fixtures except for the the 3-way that I have next to my chair for reading. I'm in the south and the weather has been crazy! two days of 65-70, then it'll be 30s and 40s for a couple of days, then back up, etc. tonight it's going to 19, so I'm in the 'cold' mold again;-\
