being winter and all, our bed is very chilly when i get into it at night. it warms up but it's uninviting when i first crawl in. the worst thing is when i've finally got a spot warmed up and b gets into bed and i have to move over to make room for him. which lands me back in a cold spot. i decided i wanted to get an electric blanket to just warm the bed up for when i get in, so on saturday i went to get one, but unfortunately they're all out of stock. or at least the ones in my price range are all gone. i was pretty disappointed by this, but i thought back to when i was little. whenever we went to england to visit my grandparents, joy and i would have to sleep on clots in their dining room. my grandma would always give us both hot water bottles (i think they even had cute covers that looked like sheep or something) to keep us warm. so i decided to give it a try because of my lack of e-blanket, and so far it's working great! i'm really pleased AND it cost me nothing AND it won't increase our hydro bill. man, why was i such a sucker falling for new technology before even giving an old faithful approach a try. this is excellent. in general i always feel a longing for that which is most simple.

its funny because i dreamt of my grandma last night. i think it's because of the hot water bottle. it made me miss her in a way i would never have expected.

can't get by on just crabapples.
