Giving in…

We have this crazy competition at our house that evolves around our furnace in the fall & winter time. The competition is to see how long we can go without turning the heat on. OK, yea.. it doesn’t really sound like the smartest game anyone has ever played, but none the less it is one that we do play every year. We’ve gotten as far as the first week of December before which is really hard to beat! Now we do get to turn on our gas fireplace which does warm the house up quite a bit. But this year… this year our furnace was turned on tonight by Daryl. He said that the house was only 52 degrees and he was cold! OK, 52 degrees if pretty cold but we were only a couple of weeks away to breaking our record! But with the temperatures dipping down this week into the teens, maybe it a good idea. I mean when the little kitties would rather be outside than in the house, well that just might be saying something. As for us tonight? Well I must admit having the heat just kick on in my scrapbook room is pretty nice. Maybe it was time after all.
