Feeling hot, hot, hot

It is flipping FREEZING here in Chicago. As I write, 5 degrees. Makes me glad I am not allowed to leave the bedroom.

In my bedroom, however, there is approximately an 90-degree temperature swing. I am wearing a tank and shorts, I have a fan on and I have thrown back the comforter.

There is no happy medium in this house. You freeze downstairs, where there is ghetto plastic covering the windows, which are being replaced in January. You swelter upstairs in our bedroom, where it feels like Phoenix in July.

Could just be the pregnant lady, but HOLY HELL is it hot up here.

But, but, BUT ... I will survive the fluctuations because the work has started on the Great Remodel 2005! The kitchen cabinets are gone, the electrical is being wired, the insulation is being placed, the floors will be fixed on Monday and we are making P-R-O-G-R-E-S-S people!

Although I did have a breakdown today when I found out the carpet was backordered and would not be installed until after Christmas. You may remember the carpet saga. Mmmmmhmmmmm, good times.

Pictures to come...
