By law, the heat in this building is supposed to be turned on by September 15th. Well last year this was done and then came Indian Summer in October. Temps hit the mid 90's. No AC, just heat. So be careful what you ask for. I went before the city council and asked for an ammendment to the law for buildings like ours. Give us the option of when we want the heat/AC turned on. They listened and we got what we wanted.
Now our morning temps are in the 40's. We need the heat. This is a place of the elderly. We are notorious for being cold at the least breeze. Of course we haven't had our Indian Summer. And we may not. And you just can't change the systems over with the flick of a switch. I keep one of my windows open about one inch year round. I could close it, but I hate to. I am a smoker and want some fresh air coming in. So I sit here in a long fuzzy nighgown, housecoat and sweater waiting for the heat to be turned on. I finally gave in and turned on the oven on "Warm." Hey I got what I asked for. So I can't complain. I just wish Indian Summer would hurry up and come if it is going to. Then they will switch over to the heat.
