Thanks for the quick response!  I have programmable thermostats (perhaps a
contributor to this problem, actually) but they only allow four time
settings - wakeup, leave, return and sleep.   I guess I could change to
another style that would allow more programming options.  Definitely a
suggestion I'll think about.

Thanks!
