Gonna be a cold one tonight, my house temp is dropping fast without the heater on. I don’t want to see my next gas bill.

Yeah I thought it was just me but it looks like a cold clear night ahead - and the following nights as well ❄️🥶

This month's electricity bill will be quite nuts but I'll wear it. Next month can be about budgeting and shit...

Not a fan of these 2 degree evenings coming up.

[–] just_kitten@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

Yeah, plus 14C during the day, and some of the shortest days of the year... ughgh.

I absolutely must plan to go somewhere warmer by July.

Workboot socks are really good bed socks.

Also if you have an electric blanket with safety cutoff you can leave it on low for Sox while out. I leave Melbcat napping in the bed and when I come home she often hasn’t moved

Oh dear, 4c at 6am, that’s going to be rough.
