Brrr.... cold this morning. I am trying very hard to be conservative with the heat, but since it really isn't all that cold yet, I am a little concerned about January/February. If I keep the heater on low, it is still a little too chilly in the living room. The kitchen, dining room, and utility room are already too cold for comfort, since I blocked them off from heat. No fun to go in the kitchen to make coffee in the mornings. I have to bundle up like I am in the Arctic Circle. Poor Nicki... with her circulation problems, her fingers are blue in the evenings. I try to look at it as a "toughening up" process. There was no heat in the Treehouse and I lived there okay. But then again, I didn't have full blown arthritis then, either.
I have a couple of PIFs to finish up and get in the mail. I am trying to complete everything by end of November so I can relax and not worry about anything else. I am having fun with some ATCs right now and have a couple of teeny-tiny art dolls that I am really loving. My raggy lady has been put away for the time being, until I can finish these other things. Since the crafting table is in the utility room, I am going to have to put a heater in there. I tried to sit in there long enough to just paint a box top and I couldn't stand it. COLD!
I am so tired.
