It’s been on heat for about a month but rarely cold enough to run.
This week may change that. A few nights should be in the high 20’s here.
Hope that knocks down the remaining leaves and Joro spiders.

Our heat has been on & off for about a month. We use electric baseboard heat in the cool months of Fall & Spring, when the wood stove would be too hot, but when it gets cold, the stove gets fired up & stays burning until about April.

I've held off about as long as I can, but it looks like the cold is going to set in this weekend so the stove's getting fired up. The wood stove has been our primary source of heat for over 50 years.

I don't mind being outside in really cold weather, but when I'm in the house I want to be warm, and nothing heats like a wood stove.

Other than just a couple days when we turned the heat on in October we’ve been running the AC up to now in western WI. This morning it was 65 when I got up at 5:30. I’ve bow hunted in early November when it’s been in the single digits for highs. We’re about to get typical November weather tomorrow.

Perception

My wife is cold when it's 85 degrees. I'm comfortable into the low 60s. Year round we cartwheel between heat and air like a drunk monkey given amphetamines.

"Odd," said Arthur, "I thought you said it was a democracy."
"I did," said Ford, "it is."
"So," said Arthur, hoping he wasn't sounding ridiculously obtuse, "why don't the people get rid of the lizards?"
"It honestly doesn't occur to them. They've all got the vote, so they all pretty much assume that the government they've voted in more or less approximates the government they want."
"You mean they actually vote for the lizards."
"Oh yes," said Ford with a shrug, "of course."
"But," said Arthur, going for the big one again, "why?"
"Because if they didn't vote for a lizard, then the wrong lizard might get in."
