Double Duvet

It was a bit of a chill overnight, the tv news even described last night and tonight as being double duvet nights.  It was recorded as 6 deg C on the tv news in our city, which might make you snigger, but in our house it is much cooler, as it is old and poorly insulated.  Tonight me and the mumster have the curtains drawn, and all the heaters on.  It did get to -22 deg C in some southern parts, the coldest temperature since 1903 we think.

So I have spent the day chilling out in mums room on the bed.  As soon as she finished work, she rushed home to get into some warm clothes and relax.  It is truly hibernation season, where mum seldom goes out in the evening, and mostly stays at home.  Tomorrow she starts at 7am, so it will be early to bed for us girls, as mum gets up at 5am to get ready.  For a low maintenance gal, she sure needs a lot of time to get ready.

Sweet dreams everybuddy.

  2. 6C is cold to us too, we wouldn't want that temp without our central heating! And minus 22C is freakin' freezing by anyone's standards. That's Canadian winter cold!

  4. Poppy, dear, here in the American Midwest even we middle-aged ladies shop for outerwear (and underwear!) at stores that supply hunters. Then we giggle at each other when we discover our micro-knit insulated undies are showing. Me, I have faith in two layers of socks and a silk scarf topped with a watch cap. Fashions for winter survival!

  9. Your mum has to get to work too! How long does it take her to get to work? She does walk to work? Right? If it is a mile that might be 20 minutes or so. Depending on if you walk against or with the wind. Stay warm.
