Winter arrived. I spent a couple of days thinking I would die of cold before I remembered How To Do Winter. I found my stash of extra-warm socks, remembered about the warm PJs, and got serious about layering clothing before heading into the woods.
It is a bit pathetic that I need to re-learn this each year.
@mirabilis The first cold snap of the year, I inevitably forget to switch the HVAC over to heat until I'm bone-deep cold. The sheepish feeling when I finally think to do that seems to get bigger every year.
@okiekiki It is a comfort to me that I am not the only one who does stuff like this.
@mirabilis Daughter had a friend over last week and they came down before bed to get hot water bottles. (hockie-bockies) The friend looked in astonishment - they'd never seen one *in real life* before.
haha! ;)
We do winter with 2 dressing gowns in the morning, socks, slippers, AND hot water bottles :D
