My husband says I'm crazy |
|
I like it cold enough in the bedroom that I have to cover up with a big, warm blanket. He doesn't understand turning the A/C down and then covering up. He says I should turn the A/C up and just use a sheet to cover with.
Am I the only one who does this? Surely not.

1. My wife likes it that way, too. I don't get it. |
|
Maybe just the comfort of the comforter.

2. I do it during the winter... |
|
I don't have A/C in my room, so I have to open the window a crack during the winter in order to get my room how I like it.

I don't really have a choice. For some reason, the AC blasts more cold air in our bedroom than in any other room of the house.

4. I like it cool in the bedroom and a blanket on, too. |
|
That's why I keep the windows open in spring as long as I can before it gets humid and I go to a/c.
A cool room keeps my nose clearer, for one thing. I will keep a window cracked open way into late fall, so the cool air will cascade down over my head.
Now I'm getting sleepy. LOL.

expensive and unnecessary for my comfort.. my boyfriend does it though. Maybe like you all have said... it helps the nose.

7. It is the exact same way in our bedroom. Blanket for me, sheet for him. |
|
We have the same debate. I like the feel of extra material, esp down around my feet.

8. Mrs R. does the same thing. |
|
Every summer, until she sees the first electricity bill of air-condition season. Then she stops.

10. I like to do it - when I had a ceiling fan, it was always on at night. |
|
Now I don't have one - but I can't bring myself to spend so much to keep the AC to the point I would prefer.

13. the optimal sleeping temp is said to be 68 F |
|
i can't afford to set my a/c to that in summer so i turn my ceiling fan on high and set the a/c just low enough so i can use my velux blanket.

I'm the one who freezes. Luckily, he's always warm. :-) I've learned to deal with it. There are some great trade offs to being cold all the time....SNUGGLES!!!!!
