Dianne Queen of Shoes Registered: 05/24/04 Posts: 6123 Loc: Arizona	I know, you think this is about sex, don't ya? Do any of you have this problem? My husband's bodily thermostat is so different from mine. In the car, during the Winter, he says I keep it so hot in the car, his shoes are going to melt to the floorboard. In the Summer, I say he keeps the car so cold, my arms are going to turn blue and fall off. In our flat, we are constantly sneaking behind the other's back, adjusting the thermostat. He freezes me and the dog! She's getting under covers to get warm. I'm getting ready to change the thermostat and get it above sub-zero, right after I post this. _________________________ If it doesn't feel good, don't do it twice. www.eadv.net Boomer Queen of Shoes

Dancing Dolphin Member Registered: 03/06/06 Posts: 2529 Loc: Southern California	You've just described me and my hubby! Although, I must admit, as I get older I seem to be warming up. I can't take as much heat as I used to - but I think I'll always be colder than him in the winter. We usually get sneaky in the car - like if I'm driving, I'll reach over to pretend to change the radio volume and turn the A/C down... Next thing I know, it's back up again! We usually joke about it, and now I actually bring a sweater or light blanket in the car for when he's trying to get the car to sub-zero. Kathy

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	Dianne, I am laughing because I have been going through this thermostat thing this summer, but it is with my oldest son. Any time I am freezing, I know he's been at it again. Sometimes I get my bath too soon before bedtime and my feet get cold before I tuck in. On those nights, I stick my freezing feet under Ross' legs and it doesn't bother him. He is definitely a hottie! _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

We had to finally call a truce and stop it. _________________________ If it doesn't feel good, don't do it twice. www.eadv.net Boomer Queen of Shoes

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	I like sleeping in a freezing cold room, so never had that prob when I was married. Our thing was while traveling, he would turn on the radio, then turn the volumn down so low you had to put your ear to the radio to hear it. What was the point? I fixed him though....I finally figured out that if I started singing, I mean really belting out a tune, he would turn up the radio in self defense....what a moron.

chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	Some of the joys of being SINGLE, no one to mess with the thermostat or the water temp settings, or the TV or the radio and on and on and gloriously, thankfully and blissfully on... _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

Pam R. Member Registered: 03/10/06 Posts: 404	I guess you girls don't suffer from those hot flashes!! I have the central air down to the freezing point and even have a fan blowing on my head at night along with it. My husband thinks I am nuts. The car is always on the Lo cycle of the a/c and I blow it in my face all the way to work each day! Then, when the flash stops I begin to freeze....this is my life all day, every day! When does it stop???? Help! _________________________ Pam

JaMaPh member Registered: 07/22/06 Posts: 162 Loc: Phoenix, Az	If I stay up after Steve goes to bed, my feet, legs, knees are always cold. I snuggle up and get'em warm. We turn the thermo down to 65 at nite. When it's 96F at 3 a.m. ya gotta do something. But he has some awesome inner motor, that his body adjusts to whatever degree it is. So we set the thermo at what I want/need and leave it. _________________________ Thinning hair? Rosacea? Eczema?

Edelweiss Member Registered: 06/05/06 Posts: 4136 Loc: American living in Europe	HI Pam R. those hot flashes are behind me...(happy dance) ...but I had a remedy that def. helped me through. I took a green pill once a day... a Chinese natural remedy..no side effects...for the life of me I can't remember the name, but maybe your drugstore can help you further. They were just natural herbs. I've heard that Chinese women never get hot flashes because of their diet. I wonder if that's true.
