Saving Electricity!

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Gill Burrell, Monday, 4 Mar 2024, 10:00

We are literally living in one room (trying to save on electricity).  It is the warmest room in the house,  fortunately, it stays warm for most of the day, this could be because it has a south facing window and has a  low ceiling. 

We live here most of  the time, it is the master bedroom so quite large. It has now become the bedroom, the study room, the TV room,music room and the dinning room. 

At night when it is much colder we still have to put on the fan heater for an hour or so. This is just to keep the temperature to a comfortable 16° and a hot wster bottle is a must.

 However, to make the meal,  I still have to go down into the kitchen which is like an ice box without any heating on! Seriously thinking of bringing up the microwave oven to cook here.

The rest of the house is also very cold. My husband is unwell and is waiting for an operation, but otherwise we are still just about coping.

heating

Anything to save money, my friend,  I do not turn on any heating in the house. iI cant waste any money that way, Although, I have invested in a heated blankt for my bed and got one sofa size one from a friend. 

i tell you , there is no warmer place than that, for some reason, if had spent time under the covers, getting up to do stuff around the house doesbt feel cold all! 

Keep saving, but keep you and loved ones warm 🤗

Hope your husband gets better ,,
