| Cold |
I live down south, and it gets hot. Really hot. So despite the fact that I have always lived down south, I tend to forget that it can also get really cold.
My roommates and I haven't gotten oil yet for our house and are trying to 'rough' it and see how long we can last before calling someone.
Here's how I've stayed warm so far (freezing temperatures included):
Keep myself dressed- I wear leggings, a longsleeve T and an undershirt to bed at night. I also wear socks.
Changed my linens- I got a set of flannel sheets from Target and am using a down-alternative comforter and another heavier comforter.
Heater-- I have a medium sized energy-friendly heater that I use in my room when I do my homework or read before going to bed. With my door closed it heats my room up pretty fast! The heater also automatically shuts off after 4 hours and should it fall over it will shut off, so it's very safe.
Slippers- I have a pair of down slippers from Restoration hardware and they keep me SO warm. I love them.
Tea- I drink hot chocolate and hot tea a lot.
Water- we also leave our outside spicket drizzling when its supposed to freeze at night, to maintain our pipes.
I know eventually we will have to call to replace the oil, but right now it's fun to see how low we can go!Labels: winter |
