Microblog Mondays. Writing in your own space. Something short and sweet. But it's meant to take back our bloggy space and call it our own. I am going to try to do this periodically. Life's hectic. So we'll see how long this lasts.

Cold. Brr. I am freezing post-op. I cannot get warm enough. Most evenings find me cozied up with Petite in her bed, snuggling for warmth as she still enjoys it when Mommy or Daddy lies down with her to cap off her day. She falls asleep pretty easily that way.
I usually manage to get up and get to my own bed in due course. But I was so chilled last night, I simply did NOT want to get out from under her blankets.
I go to bed and this is what I use to try to keep warm:
- fleece jammies (Mom just had a gorgeous new set from LL Bean sent to me! Thanks Mom!)
- a heating pad at my feet
- a Magic Bag (or two) heated in the microwave. One goes across my torso, the other near my upper arms as they get cold very fast.
- a heavy feather duvet
- I did have two extra blankets on my side of the bed, but now that the duvet and the duvet cover is on, those make it super heavy!
- and last night, I added a pair of fuzzy socks. That helped.

Oh no! You're already doing most of the things I would have suggested. I also sleep with a hot water bottle. Which isn't all that different from the Magic Bag.
Glad you're writing. I didn't see the last post (it didn't pop up in my rss reader) a few days ago. So thankful you did this so I saw that you posted again.
