Funny.


Hmm, I ate deer meat before and I used shotgun/fishing before. So am I redneck?

Very Funny. No gigantic alligators for me, thank you. And I don't hunt, either, but I DO fish-- with a catfish pole. Still learning the fine particulars of catching a catfish that way, but hopefully the next time I head to Sam Dale Lake in Southern IL I'll do better.

I am not a True Chicagoan; however, I am an IL boy, born and raised.
 
I am laughing at this thread. Try sleeping in cabins that is ice cold as outside temps when you first arrive and all it has for heat a small box stove and its just starts warming up. Throughout the week it might be pretty warm in there for constant feeding.
Ambrosia I know you are texas girl - but in sub zero temps in chilly, drafty cabin - you learn to sleep with stuff on. Heck - I even had hand warmers in my lower region sleeping to distribute heat evenly. I too hate sleeping with stuff on, but what are you gonna do? I am just glad to be back home in my zoned heating system with wood stove too.
 
Today actually wasn't that bad. It's actually warmed up some.

Oh I've only been a Texas girl for almost 3 months. Was in Myrtle Beach SC for 8 years before that. This winter is here has been colder than in MB. Lived in New Hampshire for 16 years before that.

And Mississippi, North Carolina, Philippines, Washington state, Illinois and Oklahoma the first 15 years of my life ;)

Don't know if I count as a Texas girl yet :laugh2:
 
You will someday. Just wait 5 years. I've lived a few.places around the State of IL..... Flora, Northbrook, and currently Chicago.

Electric blanket

You have to be careful using electric blankets with some elderly people .
I had a client that lived in an apartment and her heat when out during the winter and she was in bed using an electric blanket. The woman just had a stroke on one side of her body and could not feel anything . I called her nurse to report my client had no heat and was using an electric blanket. The nurse called the landlord to get him to fix the heat. My client could falling a sleep and not know she was burning herself.
 
Long sleeved nightgown, sometimes sweat pants too, thick socks, heavy comforter (very heavy) and my doggie...and most times, the Cat...I still leave my fan on to "Low"...One thing for sure, I cannot sleep if my feet are cold...or my hands.

Last night, I got comfortable...then sometime during the night, it became too hot...so I cut my Heat off...today is a little cool, but no Heat is necessary.

When we're camping I sleep "dressed" because I don't want to have to struggle with putting on clothes when I have to make that mad dash to the bathroom, which is not just next door. I slip on flip flops, grab a flashlight, and go. :lol:

My family and I sleep in a camper. The "lavatory" is a good 20-25 feet away, and stinks bad. Heck, I try not to take a crap there if I can help it.

We camp in a tent and the bathroom/shower building is a lot further away than that. It's kept up very clean.
