This morning was rough. I had a sleep in, and it was still like 5 degrees when I woke up. 12.5 in my room, but I slept with the electric blanket on low last night, so my fingers and toes were really chilly.

First thing I did was get up, turn the electric blanket onto high to defrost, then hit the heater and go back to bed for an hour until it warmed up

I had to remove the electric blanket yesterday to clean a spill and let the sponged spots dry. Suffering. I make two hot water bottles now

I really wished I had a hot water bottle for my feet last night. Gonna make one up tonight. I hate how my feet turn into iceblocks

I’ve been sleeping with mine on 1 or 2 overnight for like a month now.
