Wow it's cold.

Forgot to top off the stove last night and woke up to a blinking 3...

The wife turned on the oil before before I could stop her. I died a little inside. Hard for the stove to recover when it's 12 outside and down to 65 in the house.

This post is not useful...but the house is cold and so is conversation with the wife. Gotta remember to keep that stove going, lol.

Tell her that 65 is my target temp during the day! Actually that's where I set the heat pump thermostat in the main floor hallway, although the two stoves keep it near 70, so I'm sorta cheating and that's really a "fail safe" temp. But use it for your purposes as needed, of course!

Don't be angry...remember...it's their natural instinct to use System 1 thinking and go looking for a button on the wall when they get cold.
