Can't sleep when I am cold
How come we are always told to keep our bedroom on the cool side? Even in the summer I sleep with some type of cover on (even without the air being on). I hate the cold and always have. Even at night if the temperature in the room dips below 72 or so I freeze and will lay there wide awake trying to get warm. I would much rather have a room too hot than cold!! Otherwise I shake and shiver and feel like an icecube and hate it.

You just stopped me dead in my tracks with this, Rock!! LOL If this is true, we may be able to prevent nightsweats in menopausal women, right? Just have to find some way to get them all into REM!
Rock Hinkle said:You know Carol I am not sure. I would imagine that all mammals are that way. Babies go straight to REM and 50% or more of there sleep is spent in that stage. REm is the one stage that we lose control of our bodies temperarture reactions and control mechanisms. You don't get cold or sweat in REM. I believe it has something to do with the sleep paralysis feature that comes along with this stage. Baby sleep has to be fascinating. It would be one long vivid dream.

I can't stand the heat. Even through the winter my thermostat is set at around 68. I would rather put on a sweater or cover with a blanket because it's easier to get warm than it is to cool down.

I would never be able to sleep in your room Rock!!!!
I would lay there and shiver and be so miserable that I would want to literally cry.
I have never understood how some can sleep with a window open, even a little, in winter. That boggles my mind and now you are telling me you sleep with the ac at 65 and with 3 fans!!
I know at this point, we installed a new furnace late last fall and cold temperatures had hit. My brother and son-in-law installed a new unit for me but didn't take the time to hook up the central air. We have had lots of rain and temps have only been up in the 90's. I made it through spring allergy season, of course it was worse this year, but don't know if it was due to the unfiltered air, or just a worse than normal year. I am no hurry for them to finish up and told them they could do it when they had the time. Of course, hubby may have a different tune when he makes it home (his company usually has him away from home for periods of time).
