It's getting c-c-c-cold - Page 2

I hate cold. Cold can die in a fire for all I care.

It's a hard call in between seasons. I get chilly then turn on the furnace and realize it's too hot. I do the same with the ng fireplace too.

Shawnee - get a bathroom fan/heater combination. Unless you have a huge bathroom, a couple minutes of this will warm you right up.

My bathroom is extremely small, but that's a good idea...find a small one so I don't keep running into it.

They make bathroom fan/light/heater combinations. You could replace your current fan/light with one. Then it's out of the way. Like this:

Also, go buy a man's bathrobe (the big fluffy terrycloth kind) and put it on right out of the shower instead of a using a towel.

Shawnee123 · 09-30-2009, 09:23 AM

I haz a big fluffy bathrobe, but I can't stand putting anything on until I am completely dry. I'm weird.

Pico and ME · 09-30-2009, 09:25 AM

Is it terrycloth, like a towel?

Pico and ME · 09-30-2009, 09:26 AM

I have two robes, one for right out of the bath and one for lounging around in.

I has gotten down in the 30's at night here. I doubt we will turn on our heater for another month or so though. I just need to get out extra blankets because it is much harder to get up when you wake up cold.

Shawnee123 · 09-30-2009, 09:30 AM

For me it's harder to get out of bed when the bed is all duck-down snuggly and the air is cold.

@pico...maybe I'll look for a decent terrycloth robe. Even towels, unless used and washed, drive me crazy if they're not really absorbent.

Shawnee123 · 09-30-2009, 09:36 AM

Interesting. I've never seen that kind of thing, and my light is a fluorescent above the sink...this gives me some ideas for changes.

I am having some work done on my bathroom...new floor. I'd love to replace the whole damn thing.

Do you have a bathroom vent fan? That's what this would replace.

Shawnee123 · 09-30-2009, 09:48 AM

Nope.

Shawnee123 · 09-30-2009, 11:42 AM

Ohhhhh, I'm a bit slow on the uptake.

A couple of morons must have rubbed off on me.
