Still no furnace. kids all huddled in great room near TV, oven and space heater.
Me, i'm drinking hot tea and fixing meatloaf.

(Um, no, the oven isn't in the great room, it's just at the end of the kitchen nearest the great room.) The front room and all bedrooms (esp the two on the north side, and our unheated one) are closed off.

We're going to the store and getting cookie making supplies.
And we're sleeping in the great room, in a big heap to keep warm. hubby works tonight and will stay watrm there.

May have to get some yarn and make me some gloves. I'll fix up my coat tonight. I have a nice cloth one that shouldn't generate so much static I shock myself touching WATER.

Also, found the soapstone beads for daughter's display. Viking trade-goods, also their version of teflon.

So I sit, wearing a blouse, my vest (several layers of cotton duck) and my wrap.
And i'm still flippin cold!
Fingers mostly.

Maybe I can get some crochet done. Too cold in the study to write.

My little sister is 30 today. I sent her a card.
