Maybe a good attitude helps you stay healthy.

I'm probably going to get pneumonia then...

[a_sigint_ninja]

I think that was covered in my psych class-why is it here?

I've never gotten pneumonia. My mom always panics if I'm outside without a warm coat if it's 40 degrees out. Of course, she's cold when it's 75 in here.

lol - well, my Dad constantly turns up the heat(puts a log on the fire, I mean) if it gets below 70 - my mom constantly opens the windows no matter what the temperature outside.
Then I close them - she opens them and reprimands me - then I close them again....

Just yesterday - it's like 17 degrees out and and she had the window open.
I dunno how many times we've gotten spanked and punished for being outside without "proper clothing".

[a_sigint_ninja]

My mom's only allowed to open the windows in the summer. One time, the guys were gone, and it was 90 degrees outside-she would not close the windows and turn the air on. Very bad.

I wish it was 17 out here.

[Lazarus]

I wish it was 75 over here.

[a_sigint_ninja]

Current temps:

68 indoors, about 30 outside.

I consider 75 a bit too warm.

[Lazarus]

I think it's about the same here.

I prefer it to be at least 50 - 60 degrees outside, and 70 inside in the winter.

Now - our basement is about 20 degreesexaggeration. Luckily we don't keep that fireplace down there going.

[a_sigint_ninja]

We have a wood stove in our basement-use it instead of the furnace. It can get really warm down there, though.

[ohnolookout]

Low here : 27 F, High : 33 F......My weather never changes!

[Lazarus]

Do you buy wood for it?

[a_sigint_ninja]

No. We know places to get wood free.

[Lazarus]

Nice.
We've been cutting the dang stuff out of our forest for the past 9 years.
Chopping, splitting, cutting, sawing, stacking, hauling...

I imagine that's how Dad got his hernia.

How ironic that he thoughtfully had an expensive heating system installed when our house was built - that had to be repaired several times due to non-use!

[a_sigint_ninja]

That's what I meant by free. Luckily, I'm not conscripted for it. I have to *shudders* help in the kitchen.

[Lazarus]

Yeah, the sisters never had to help us gather wood either. Not that they did any kitchen work - they mostly just sat around the living room playing - fighting - screaming - having tantrums...

[a_sigint_ninja]

How old are they?

People don't scream at my house. Though my brother was just saying I should be working on school-as if I really have any.
