Baby, It's Cold INSIDE...
No, I didn't write that wrong. It's cold in here. I have found in the last few days that living in an old house(that we thankfully rent and do not own) equals COLD!!!!!! I dread seeing our electric bill next month. I'm going to have to put up a donation button to help pay for the heat! :)
I guess we are going to have to winterize our home better because this is just the beginning of the cold temperatures. Alot of our heat is lost due to poor insulation and an old fireplace that doesn't work enough to actually use it. It's just something that steals out heat! When we first moved into this old house our 5 year old son was thrilled to see that we had a fireplace not for the heat but because now Santa could come down the chimney instead of coming through the back door!
It looks like it's time to buy the boys a bunch of footed thermal pajamas. Lately I've been walking around the house in a jacket and my husband's socks with clothes on of course! Yes, I am that person that is always freezing!
On to other things, our son's blood tests came back negative and we are so thankful. There are no major illnesses. The next course of action is an endoscopy in a couple of weeks.
As soon as I finish up here we are off to our the in-laws for a Thanksgiving get together this weekend and we will come back here for a day or two then go to my parents and sisters for the "official" Thanksgiving. Sometimes the hubs and I complain that we don't like having to travel for the holidays but I'm glad that we atleast have a place to go and I am so grateful for having that.

I don't envy you. I hate cold weather, which is part of the reason I live down south. I hope y'all winterize soon and that it helps.
Glad to hear that the blood tests didn't find anything. I'm thinking of your family.
Glad to hear the tests came back with good news.
Have a great weekend.
glad to hear the results came back and all is well! that must realy take a world of stress off your shoulders. now you can at least relax a bit for the holiday.
we used to travel all over on the holidays too. we love seeing family, but it just became too much. we now spend every thanksgiving at home and space out the visits for christmas before and after the holiday.
WOOHOO! I'm so glad the tests came back negative!!
Go have a wonderful time with your in-laws and be Thankful :)
YAY for negative results!!!!
Winterizing old houses is tough, I wish you much luck and make sure you have lots of slippers and blankets to snuggle up with!
I am glad that the tests were negative!
We have a newer house but it is freezing too. Our landlord is going to have to replace the furnace so we will see if that helps the cold any. I hope that you can get warm.
