My thermostat didn't budge off 67/68 all weekend when it got down to -6 at night or 0 during the day.

Throw on a hoodie and be a man

Our therm is typically set from 65-67 in the colder months. We have warm clothes, blankets, socks(!), etc and the kids learned to use a microwave heatpack if they felt cool in the house. I love the winter months.

Came home and my wife had the thermostat set to 72 (it was 15 degrees outside).  She could have set it to 68-69 but she wanted to get warm faster.

This is easily one of the most common posts on this thread (not complaining).  But why do so many women think this is a logical approach to heating a house quicker.  Do they think it's like adding more logs to a fire to burn bigger and it will heat more/faster if we demand more?

Yup.  65 here in our house. 62 at night.

We live in an older 2 story that only has one unit, so when the thermostat is at 65, it's 127 in our upstairs bedroom. 

Our bedroom is on the 2nd floor, directly above the furnace in the basement.  I have a programmable thermostat that's set at 65 at night, 67 in the day.  

It's so hot in the bedroom we sleep with the windows open (a bit) during the winter.  It's glorious.
