Gary,
I've got R 19 in the walls, with 4" basic pink insulation augmented with the silver thermofoil sheets over that. I'm still working my way up to the roof, this winter, I'm probably going to let the loft chill out on its own this winter. (nothing up there that can't handle the cold anyway). I'll have to wait for a couple of weeks before the 'ceiling' goes in.
I'll have to read up on how to add some thermal mass on the cheap as well, that sounds like it would be helpful.
Oh and if you're feeling adventurous, my shop build thread is Here it isn't fancy, but it's mine!
