It's currently 62* in our house! It was a balmy 66* earlier today. The furnace kicks on, but doesn't warm up, it's blowing cool air. Needless to say, I'll be staying downstairs tonight and stoking the blaze. Our heating guy will be here at 8:00 AM tomorrow morning. 🥶

@spumoni99 I have one of those heated cape type things that I use for my shoulders and back. I may have to use that tonight too. My sister-in-law's house csught fire from an electric blanket that was left on. This was decades ago so hope they have better safety features now. DH probably wouldn't want one anyway. I layer up at night and he's fine with one blanket. 🤷♀️

@JeanLouiseFinch I've always been afraid of an electric blanket too. I have heard of them catching on fire.
I'm sure the incidents of that happening are rare but I just never wanted to take the chance.
I did buy an electric throw many years ago and have never used it. It just sits in my cedar chest.
I hope your heat is fixed tomorrow. There's nothing more miserable than being cold.

i had an electric blanket years ago when I lived close to the mountains; loved using it during the really cold, snowy winters. I didn't know they even still sold electric blankets. I have become a fan of a weighted blanket that I received as a gift last year. I hope your heat is back on asap. Stay warm by the fire!

My husband uses an electric blanket every night, it does have an auto shutoff.

The family room is nice and warm, @SandySparkles. Thanks. The rest of the house is still chilly. I'm waiting to see if DH gives in and decides to come down.
