We woke up to a light covering of snow, since then it has developed into sleet which is being blown every which way by the wind. I told my cleaner last night not to risk coming if the roads were bad, I can manage for a week.
Turned the heating up to warm the bungalow a bit quicker, once its ok I will turn it down again. I do sometimes wonder about leaving the heat on low all night.......have only done it once, I ended up getting up in the night to turn it down, I was sweating.
DB is still suffering with his back, he has an extremely low threshold to pain which makes him a right PITB to deal with. We had words yesterday, he ended up going to bed and sulking. At least I got an hour of peace. He needs to move round more, he will insist on just sitting and then complains it hurts.
Laundry is in the washer, it will be going in the dryer, Takes about half an hour for a full load, so does not coat too much in electricity.
Supper tonight will be mac and cheese with some sort of salad, I have sponge pudding for dessert.
Update:
I am crackered, swished round the wet room, toilet, bedroom and sitting room with a damp duster and the GTec, cooked leek and potato soup enough for lunch today and possibly another couple of days. Sorted out the mac and cheese and did a rocket salad to go with it. In emergency mode in case the power goes off filled 3 flasks with hot water for hot drinks, made sure I sorted out the candle holders etc, made our morning tea in the two insulated mugs we use when we are travelling.......No I have not done any sewing I am too crackered.... it will have to wait.
Living where we do there are often power cuts in bad weather one reason why I wanted to change the electric cooker for one with a gas hob.......hey ho.......
