Got 100 gallons of oil last week of November for $3.55/gallon. Lasted a whopping 32 days. Got another 150 gallons at the start of this month an they were ever so kind to give it to me for $3.48/gallon

I try and keep it around 69. If it was just me in the house, I'd leave it at 65.

It needs redone. There are some other places around the house where cold air is getting in. Single pane windows aren't helping the situation much. I can stand 5 feet away and feel cold air. I have a sunroom that needs the insulation replaced underneath it. I have a 1, 200 sq ft unfinished basement that has a fireplace. Im thinking of getting a woodstove to put in there as my main source of heat.
