Still in Bloomington

I didn't quite finish my homework yesterday, so I'm staying another day in Bloomington, and driving up to Michigan on Saturday. I shopped until I dropped last night, so I have plenty of food in the house. I also picked up litter boxes for the cats, and a bunch of other stuff that I needed for the house. I also discovered that the Walgreen's about a half-mile from my house is open 24 hours and has a 24-hour pharmacy. That alone might be worth the move to Bloomington. They certainly have my business.

The weird thing is that the upstairs is colder than the downstairs here. I found a queen-sized velour throw for my bed, and that made a big difference. I don't know in which box my teakettle is, but I wonder if I could get my mom's new coffeemaker to make me hot water for tea.

What with heat rising, that IS weird! Maybe a draft somewhere? Hrm. Glad you got a warm blanket. Makes all the difference!

You know those electric kettles used everywhere in th UK? They actually save energy and heat up fast! Very affordable, I got mine at a dollar store.

I used to have an electric kettle, but I'm not sure what happened to it....I'll look for one when I have the time.

An advantage to an electric kettle is that I could use it in my "office" (second bedroom with my desk and computer). I seem to be spending most of my time there lately....
