The Wife turns the heat down low when she leaves for work because, she explains, "no one's home."
As I work at home, I don't share that opinion, and our house does get chill on days like today.
I am a big fan of Columbia fleece "jackets" which are really more like sweaters (I just bought a red one last night). They zip on and off easily, so if it gets hot in the kitchen, you can just unzip and air out or take the thing off.
Zippered pockets are better for holding things than a kangaroo pouch on a sweatshirt.
