My in-laws just moved into a brand new house

And they’re asking us for a quilt because it’s cold at night 

They have brand new heating and air-conditioning systems. Why are they unwilling to just turn the heat up?

Why people torture themselves like this I’ll never understand 

It’s 74 in my house year round, no exceptions

They aren't heating the whole neighborhood!!!

They need a heated mattress pad. That's the game changer 🙌 

60⁰ in the house, toasty AF in the sheets 

I got a dad brain it comes to the house and bills 😂 but I've become more generous. I can't WFH at 62⁰, but I can at 65⁰ 😉

Energy/cost savings? Me, I’d probably turn the heat up. But my grandparents who grew up during the Great Depression, they’d almost certainly have opted for extra bedding.
