Its not really cold yet but I do put it on for a little while in the morning and for a little while in the evening, just to make it comfortable, I hate being uncomfortable.A cloudy day is no match for a sunny disposition~ William Arthur Ward ~0

I gave in on 1st October as it was getting too cold in the mornings. It's only on a couple of hours in the morning and a couple at night.Mortgage Free in 3-T2 : Started at £151,000 Nov. 2009 Mortgage Free Oct 1st 2015

Mine is still off. My oh works outside so thinks the house feels warm. It has gone cold in the evening now and there was a frost here this morning. Never mind I made a big throw for the sofa and my electric blanket is on. I just hate having cold feet so have leg warmers on.Anyone who lives within their means suffers from a lack of imagination:beer:

Where does the time go? :think:0 -
Defiantly on....
Was down to 2 degrees here last night and felt the nip in the air yesterday evening.0 -
Dont worry too much about his hands (or feet), a good way to find out if your little one is cold before they can tell you is to feel their backs (maybe the tops of their arms/back of neck as well) - if they are cold there then extra layers and maybe the heating on then!
I am not too worried about him as he feels nice & warm - its me I am worried about, I am still feeding him & those cold little hands on my skin are too much to bear haha

It's been realy cold these past few nights and early mornings but to be honest we've just put on a jumper.
I'm going to try and hold out like I did last year as we actually felt much better for it not being in a stuffy atmosphere.
It's not that I'm being mean as I've still continued paying the same gas and electric payments and have built up a good credit for when it gets realy cold, it's just we realy did feel better last year when we did'nt have the heating on all the time.
We moved about a lot more and got a lot more done and my OH even lost a bit of weight as he was more active.
It's amazing how central heating makes you feel lazy and lethargic.
I'll put the heating on when I need to but if it's anything like last year it won't be till December again and that will only be if I have to.0
