But then the slush freezes so its not so great. Hate the Arctic cold blast that we are all having. Some places lots colder than here. And it is cold enough here.

That's what I've done for the few times we lost heat. Then we closed the doors and stayed in the kitchen.

Now 46.4 and very sunny.

I have an electric stove here....no gas lines, so I would have to put in propane which I know is slower than natural gas. The boiling water sounds like a good idea, I've added cinnamon sticks, cloves, & orange peel when I want the house to smell nice....Today was a better day....40....but lots of icy patches everywhere.....even downtown where I walked around after leaving my car for an oil change. Squalls forecast for tonight.....hope our town gets a miss!

Was nice today, well for Maine. Sticking tongue out we made it to 36, was sunny and very little breeze. We have some nasty weather coming...although I don't think it will be as bad as they are saying!
