Baby it is cold outside (and inside too!)

Sad, but true.  Here I am at my computer, studying.  Do you like my ergonomic keyboard?  I LOVE IT!  And, that is my down lap blanket under the keyboard.  If you recall, I work on a laptop, but use my wonderful keyboard instead of the laptop keys.  Lately I have taken to working in the recliner, but the newest addition to my computer set up is the GLOVES.  Yes, that is right, I'm typing with gloves on because it is sooo cold in my house!  Cold and drafty!  I guess it is one of those things that makes living in a house built during George Washington's lifetime rather interesting. I never thougtht I could type with gloves on, but I have a pair of the kid's stretchy gloves on, and they fit, well they fit like a glove!  I definitely type faster, and with greater accuracy without the gloves, but this is fine for the moment!  Off to bed now, with hat, neckwarmer, and socks on.  I will be leaving the gloves next to the computer for the night.  Stay warm!!

Sorry Ladies!

cold boston

It is official! I have the world's greatest husband!

We live in a true colonial home, about as old as the USA. As such, it required updating for heat, electric, etc. There is no heat upstairs. Living in the northeast, it can be quite chilly. We also get pretty good winds whipping around here in the mountains, and the wind can at times, whip right through the house and through you!

I love the four seasons, and wouldn’t give up the winter for anything, and I enjoy the cold weather. My philosophy is to just put on another sweater. But, when you go to bed, the room is cold, the sheets are cold, and changing into your bedclothes makes you cold.

My hubby always laughs at me and tells me that I married him for his body heat, as he is always warm. Last night, when I went to lie down, he was asleep on my side of the bed. I know he prefers the other side so I nudged him to move. He was over on my side to warm it, and I was able to rest in a nice warm bed, as he moved over to the cold side! The very cold side, our room is very chilly. What a guy!

So there you have it ladies! My husband is the greatest!

This is not a picture of my chilly house, lol, but I did think it was a good visual for how cold I am when I go to retire for the night.
