It's 68F in my apartment, which in this place usually feels very cozy. But in warm socks, thermal long john bottoms, jeans, two shirts and a hoodie, I was still shivering. I now am dressed in my warmest pjs, a huge thick sweatshirt, hat, scarf, flip-top mittens (can't find my wrist warmers) and wrapped overall in a fleecy bathrobe, with the kettle boiling to make a lovely pot of tea. For the first time in about two weeks, I'm finally starting to thaw out.

Winter storm Jonas hit earlier than expected and harder as well, so my plans for the evening went kaput. But I'd rather the people I love stay safe at home than try driving through a snowstorm just to keep me company. So instead of dinner with my sister, I stopped at Target for a microwave meal, plus enough food for the weekend (along with all the other people out doing their emergency snowstorm shopping - sadly mine was just the usual Friday "I don't want to leave the apartment over the weekend" shopping spree).

I'm in hibernation mode too. We have about two foot of the white stuff. I'm underneath an electric blanket with two kitties fir extra warmth. My house is drafty and cold all the time. I have to put on a hoody just to go downstairs. Right now I could unload my freezer and the items would still stay frozen sitting on the kitchen counter. It's around 35 degrees downstairs. Upstairs it's around 55. Hope you stay warm. It's a great day for a nap.

Yikes! That's a truly cold home. I hope you're able to keep yourself warm until the weather improves!
