HeatA while back I mentioned that because I’ve lost weight I now feel the cold even more. Well, last night the electricity went out for about 2 hours. During that time our furnace didn’t work and it got even more cold in the house. With this weight loss, I really felt it yet again.

I have a friend out here who has one of those vent free heaters. It looks exactly like this one. Last night I was wishing we had one of those. See, they don’t use electricity. It’s purely done with gas, so it’s hard for a storm to knock them out, even for 2 hours. So I might just buy one when we have the cash. It would prevent me from becoming a “fatsicle” again. Of course, losing the weight would prevent that too because then I wouldn’t be a “fatsicle,” I’d just be a “popsicle.” (Get it? “pop”sicle? Because I’m a father? I’ve really gotta stop with these puns.)

    I don’t know whether to take Bridget Jones as a compliment or an insult. Just kidding. The movie was decent and my wife loved it. So I’ll take that as a compliment. Thank you! ;)

    I’ve been meaning to get some weight off. Right now I’ve been laying off on the sugar and eating better. What I really need to do is start by blogging less and getting more active. :) Congrats on the weight loss so far!

    Oh, I need one of those heaters too! But, we don’t have gas, just electric =( I guess that I will just have to keep layering.

    Yeah. Layers work. This year I have to wear more than shorts and a t-shirt. ;)
