We keep our thermostat at 72 like sane individuals

I overheat at 64.

If the lady allowed, I’d have it 58 or so, all day

It's work in the warm season, but well worth it in the cold. The money we save is incredible.

One of my wood burning devices.

I have a wood burning fireplace, but it doesn't give off much heat. Was ^this once a fireplace?

It is a fireplace. That is a fireplace insert. Never use an open fireplace for heat. You fly through the wood and most of the heat will shoot up the chimney then eventually cause a draft. Open fireplace is a great short term heating the room for looks and atmosphere but not effecient at all.

That feeling you get when you arrive at work, sit down at your desk, and have the sudden realization that you left home without closing your garage door....

Drove back home, sure enough.... wide open At least I only live four miles away.

I wonder if I can talk the landlord into upgrading to one that has an app where you can close it remotely.

Seriously, I need to think of something.
