Our heat pump has been running 24/7 lately, our bill will probably be huge but who cares. I am all for warmth!!! Its absolutely freezing here - we had to go out yesterday and I swore it was about to snow.

The house is actually snuggly and warm but I haven't opened the front door yet so who knows what will meeet us out there!]]> Sun, 24 May 2009 06:29:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26685&PID=693466&title=cccccccold-who-else#693466 <![CDATA[C-c-c-c-c-c-cold!

I am running the upstairs heater 24/7 and the one downstairs is on 16 hours a day, that's how I intend to get us through winter and screw the cost and the hydrolake levels.  This baby is also going to have snowsuits in several sizes for when we go out to kindy/mainly music/storytime (daily routine with #2 is definitely going to be different than it was with #1).

Me! Pick me!
It's absolutely freezing here!
I'm wearing flanelette jammies and uggs (sexy!!) under the heatpump.

I went out this morning to feed the cats and dog (and slipped over on the frost and now have a lovely bruise on my left butt cheek!) and the paddling pool (the same one I was meant to put away 2 months ago) was full of rain water and frozen over!!

For some reason Hannah loves the be outside on freezing cold days.
She's all toasty warm in six thousand layers of clothing - I'm freezing my (bruised) butt off!!

So Katherine, save me a spot under your blankets. I'll bring the popcorn!

That sounds like a great way to spend a wintery Friday night!

I have heaters running at both ends of the house but I'm still dreading leaving my nice warm lounge and going into the kitchen because that will be freezing.  Once I have tidied up the lounge and kitchen (after I finish procrastinating) I am heading off to my bed to watch TV.

 

p.s. I was soooo cold on Wednesday I ended up wearing  microfleece jacket under my woollen coat (as well as my hat, scarf and gloves).

ETA: Going outside in this weather is a major mission for me because I don't fit any of my winter clothes and there's no point buying any winter maternity clothes since I finish work next friday and have plans to hibernate until the birth.
