68 summer, 60 to 80 winter, the Buck Stove is hard to regulate, sometimes we have to open the doors in the winter if we misjudge.

68 in the winter and 74-75 in the summer. Some folks think 74-75 is way too warm, but when it's 100 deg+ outside, like it is here in the summer, 74-75 feels damn cool. I may cut it down to 73 at night in the summer, but rarely.
No, I'm not old, At least not real old...lol

Whatever temp the wife says is not cold or hot. That depends on her mood, what kind of day she had, how much she is moving , how long she will be sitting, and likely a dozen other things over the last 37 yrs. I am starting to figure out how she thinks. By the time I find out exactly, I will be 6' under. I married her twin

My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

I have a friend who keeps his house at 53 F in the winter. I wonder what the metabolic / health affects could be. It'll increase your metabolic rate to maintain body temp, assuming indoor clothing. Sleeping under light blankets does the same thing. Like I said, I keep the house at about 61, but I'm wearing thermals and double socks all winter long working outside. With my metabolism, anything warmer than that and I can't stay asleep.
