Unfaithful - and enjoying it very much

I am currently being unfaithful to my radiator; and linking up shamelessly with my hot water bottle. And i don't care who knows!

The radiator, given a century or three, does perhaps raise the temperature a few degrees - but is not personally warming. Whereas my hot water bottle - cosy and focused on my lap - is.

The room around me may be see-your-breath chill, but why should this concern me? For I am as toast! As in, hot bread popping steaming from the toaster. Hot, hot, hot!

This is good news for heating bills, and further confirmation - as if we needed it! - that if we look after our selves, our surroundings become less oppressive.

Delightful even.

Hmmm, you speak to someone who has had no hot water or heating for three weeks (now sorted at considerable cost) so I am rather more friendly with my hot water bottle and kettle than is ideal!
I do agree though, the hot water bottle is a wonderful thing.
I've found you through your book The Enneagram, which someone recommended to me. Loving it. Especially the Cup of Life representations, which are excellent. And, of course, the fact you have named your 'Essence' character Tess. Well what can I say. I'm just glad my name isn't Percy!
