Winter Necessity

Now that the cold temps are here, Andy and I tried to brainstorm ways to keep our energy bill down this winter. We are going to hold off on lighting the pilot light to our fireplace, keep the thermostat down low (low as in LOW) and we decided to invest in an electric mattress pad. We tried it out today and it was wonderful! I hope it's enough when the snow hits...I guess we'll just need to throw another blanket on!
