It's to late for us to have another basement unless it had an elevator.

My left hip started acting up again today with all the walking I have had to do the last two days.

The reason our bedroom is 60 degrees, Larry, is bc of the AC. It's set for 73 upstairs, and the basement, where our room is, is always about ten degrees cooler than that. My DH's metabolism is such that he needs the house to be pretty cool. Mine is just the opposite, I'm always cold! We are thermodynamically incompatible. But otherwise, a perfect match.

I don't know what decade you lived here, and NW may be much cooler than SE MO, but this past summer we were very much in the upper 90's on the mercury, and well into triple digits on the "feels-like" scale, for WEEKS! This, they tell us, is our new normal. We have very high humidity down here.

that post I made earlier about my foot was a failed surgery. They cut my ach.

We got both extreme heat in the summers and another ice age in the winters. Triple digit summers and sub zero winters.

yes, I tore it trying to lift my mom. They put anchors in my heel and told me I would be in a wheelchair soon. Dr was the one that said it was a failed surgery.
