Sometimes, I even put light flannel sheets on the bed in winter months even though the interior temperature of our home is the same as it is in summer. Why is that?
I can't figure that out either. In the summer we keep the a/c at 79 during the day, 76 at night, mostly because elderly dog with LarPar cannot regulate his temp adequately. We're usually freezing inside.

In the winter, 79 & 76 would be waaaay too hot inside. It's more like 72 & 70.
