I don't wear a wrist watch or have a cell phone. One Winter the power was off for 24 hours from 6AM to 6AM. There was a warming center at the VA Hall. I was the only person who showed up. There was no wall clock. Whenever I asked what time it was people looked at the phones.
Over the years I've had several different thermostats in my apartment. Some I could not change. Not even my landlord nor his wife could change it. He had to call the installer to change the temp. The installer had set the heat for 68F at night and 72F during the day. Too cold for me. One week they had to put in three different thermostats. I now have a thermostat I can adjust. I have it set at 78F for both heater and a/c.
