Wevver is about to fall in a heap. Stay warm, everyone!
I'm still safe and warm in the uni library greedily using up their heating. My bedroom heater will click on very soon (to help make it less miserable for poor sox who is also in the dark), but the rest of the house will be rather sad. I'll be booted out of here in 45 minutes and home is just a 5 minute drive away so hopefully I can rescue the place from being too much of a freezing prison.
Maybe a nightlight and a heated kitty bed are in order 🥺
Edit: This one from Pawz is down to $40 from 80-ish, Temple and Webster has one on clearance at $35. This one is $46-50 at Harvey Norman, Big W, and Bunnings.
Melbcat’s was $40 at Kmart but they don’t seem to sell electric ones anymore
I'm so annoyed that I can't find the heating pad I bought for her years ago - I think it was one of the few things I didn't give to her owner when I moved house. I might get one of those cheap ones for her and give that to her owner when he gets back.
Most days I'm home well before it gets dark but next week I might have several long days. I think I'll make a note to keep the bedroom lamp on at all times
Feels like it already has. Water bottle and blanket just made me fall asleep.
Now I’m debating if I should make bolognaise tonight or tomorrow.
I'm thinking of anyone brave/silly enough to go camping this weekend. I'll be outside for a bit tomorrow and that'll be quite enough.
On the couch in warm house about to watch a movie. Yay for heating!
