Cold Front!!!
Posted: 10-23-07 11:10am

So we woke up this morning and it's freaking freezing! Shocked Sad I hatehatehate the cold! We don't have central air, so we're huddled inside my computer room with the cat and a little space heater. I'm nervous because it's the first time I've used one since Alyvia's been really active (last year she was too little to notice it) and she's really curious about it. I'm watching her like a hawk because I'm scared she'll try to touch it and burn herself.

I'm ready for Spring! Sad

I hate the cold. Hate hate hate hate. I'm a Florida girl through and through. It is still pretty warm here though. It's like 86 out right now. And the heat in our house is going to smell so bad when we have to use it this winter, I'm not looking forward to that.


I don't have heat in my car.

We have these huge gas heater units, but they're super old and make us nervous. This whole house is ridiculously old (Aaron learned how to walk in this house - that's how old it is) and we're scared that the heaters will burn the house down. So we don't use them. Plus they take forever to heat the house up, and there are only two of them - one at each end. Space heaters seem safer to us, plus they heat rooms much faster. This house has crap insulation though, so it's miserable in the heat AND miserable in the cold. Ugggggh. I hate it here.

It can get into the low 20's I think? I really don't have much of a head for low temps. I know it hits triple digits in the summer. I think it's about 50 inside our house right now. Sad

I think I'd rather deal with the cold than the heat of Satan....
I'm so sick of 90 degree weather.
At least with cold, you can always add clothing/blankets.
With the heat, you can only take off so much clothing...
And the expense of A/C is a joke...

I would much rather be hot than cold. I don't like being hot either, but when I'm cold I feel it all the way down to my bones and I can't stand it! Plus I lose circulation in my toes and in my pinky fingers sometimes. Sad

I'm with you! I would rather put on another sweater or sit in under a nice warm electric blanket than sweat to death.

I love waking up in the morning to nice chilly air! It hasn't been getting too cold at night here yet, I hope it holds off for a little while because we aren't getting wood for the woodstove for another 2-3 weeks! We have electric base board heaters we can use though if we really need too.
