Is there something wrong with my 1998 Toyota Camry's Heater?

When Im driving the needle on the Hot Cold thing doesn't get too far from the C. The heat is kinda warm but definitely does not warm me up. But if Im like sitting in a drive through or it just sits and runs for a few minutes the needle will go to about the middle where its supposed to be, but when i start driving again it falls back down close to the C, can someone please give me some insight? Thanks!!
 
Get your engines thermostat checked, its probably stuck open and letting hot air out of your engine. Not a horrible problem but not as easy as an oil change. When your sitting, cold air isn't going through your radiator and your engine gets hotter and your Temperature gauge goes up. when your moving, you get that cold air you need and it cools the engine.
 
HUH?

Are you looking at the engine temperature gage? That doesn't have anything to do with the heater.

The heater temperature controls are usually a slide tab or push button digital readout..
