It's Cold

And I have a very rare enthusiasm for household chores. Chop kindling? Sure. Wash dishes? You got it. It's the best way to keep warm. I should probably do something about cleaning out the bathroom, but I guess that will depend on what the rest of the afternoon is like...

Hey, I ran a hot water bottle for Rosie. It was bloody freezing today and she looked so pathetic. And I was having trouble geting the fireplace door to open, which made lighting a fire exceedingly problematic.

I could tell you about how I fixed, but I definitely acted like a jerk at one point, so perhaps not.

Today I went in stages:
1) dress warmly
2) boot cat off the sunny couch
3) have cat climb all over me, looking for a comfy place to sit
4) wrap up in blanket
5) light fire
6) wrap up in blanket again
7) lurk in front of fire
In hindsight, I think I should have cracked and lit the fire earlier, it's just that I feel guilty running it during the day. (Damn my semi-puritan upbringing.) Oddly, it seems to be slightly warmer now. Maybe it's that I've just had dinner or something. Babe has been hunched up looking fairly miserable for most of the day as well.
