Woke up this morning, rolled over in my bed and almost jumped out in shock. The part of the bed i rolled onto was like frozen...OUR HEAT WENT OUT OVERNIGHT...the part of the bed i was laying on had stayed warm just cuz of my body heat, now i'm sitting at my computer fully decked out in winter coat, hat, gloves, 2 pairs of sweats...ITS FREEZING

alotta people on this forum, including myself, have been complainin about how cold it is lately...just wanted to say, dont take your nice warm home for granted, alotta people aren't so lucky.

it's an every day struggle for him...he's like 15 years old, and almost completely blind, so they sneak up on him and start licking his butt like crazy and he just kinda takes it the best he can.

at the same time though they totally respect him because he was there when they were first brought into the home...if they start to cross the line, he'll bite em' right on the nose and they totally back off.

Yes we got the heat working...Thank you very much for asking Berny :-) I don't think some ppl realize how scary that is, we're having like crazy record low temps right now in CHICAGO where the winters are expected to be cold!!! Just saw on the news stories of people being found dead in there beds because the heat went out over night; people and animals in the hospital with severe hypothermia...serious sh!t

Good to hear man. I supplement my heat sometimes with kerosene and small space heaters. Had to last year when gas prices skyrocketed. I live in a ranch type house so I spend most of my time in my gameroom downstairs. (I'm a bottom dweller) I guess I'm lucky, my gas bill for Jan was only $97! Gonna be different for Feb.

We got down to 15 yesterday here in central NC. We probably won't get below freezing tonight and by 3rd wk of Feb I expect we'll have some 70 degree days.

damn reading your stories makes me feel kinda guilty.

for the past couple of days the temperature was 85 degrees here and dropping down to 55degrees over night. i was complaining about how cold it was at night. i shouldn't complain.

glad to see you got your heater working again.

props to all of you taking the cold weather.

well its not like we get earth quakes everyday but yeah alot of people of scared.

whats real bad about living in cali is the smog. you go to any other state and the air is so fresh. also another bad thing for me is the freeway i take to work everyday. it is in the top 10 most congested freeways in the world. lol.
