Home Nudist with high heating bill
Return to DiscussionsI start using clothes for their legitimate purpose - protection. From the cold. I put on a Tshirt first. If I need more, I put on a sweater vest. Colder yet, I will put on a full sweater, and probably socks by this time. I do not put on pants unless it is REALLY cold.
As much as I hate to do so, I put on clothes. That's why I hate winter. If it wasn't for football and skiing...
There are two things that are awesome to do nude in cold weather.
A) Hot-tubbing. I love going to Common Ground Wellness Center in Portland, OR.
B) Indoor tanning. Before you preach to me about the dangers of using tanning beds, answer me this: do you eat/enjoy bacon? Good, then you can't talk. We're all going to die of something and according to the latest reports from the World Health Organization, consuming bacon causes cancer. So there ;)
Since Im in the business I installed the highest efficiency system I could possibly put in. The heating bill has been cut in half for several years now. Might have had to rethink how we live in the winter if not for that. Personally I place living nude high on the scale and enjoy my wife living bare even more so. So if the heating cost for our long winters is amped up above what it would be it's worth it to us.
We don't get the really cold temps, as many of you do. We have had frost warnings and woken up to outside temps in the mid 20's but we keep the inside temp of the house around 66-68 in winter and 80 in summer. This keeps our electric and gas bills tolerable. Colder winter temps usually mean Di puts on a flannel shirt and slippers, I may or may not wear socks. Tile floors can get really cold.
Now that Di is retired ... if we're going to jack up the heat in the house to remain naked, we just jump in the car and head for Palm Springs for the day, or two, or longer so we can spend the money on visiting our favorite resort instead of paying for higher electric and gas bills! :D
