It Is So Cold I Need Thermal Underwear and Merino Wool Socks
Our gas company should be making quite a bonanza of money this winter, our temps are lucky if they are two digit and the forecast says it is going to be even lower this coming week. We turned the thermostat down to a chilly 66 degrees to keep down our escalating utility bills, and we are all grumpy about that.
Some Happy Trails today, it is just plain cold, outside and inside. The only difference is when you have been outside, the inside feels like a heatwave. Stay inside awhile and a lousy 66 degrees feels cold.
Hubs has Merino wool socks and thermal underwear. And right now, some thermal underwear and Merino wool socks would make a big difference in my attitude. Something very soft and luxurious and warm. Hubs has to put those on when he visits his brother. They are keeping their inside temperature at 62 degrees. Now that is really chilly inside.
About the only places near here that would carry the good Merino wool socks will charge way above what a little work to search online reveals as the going price. A lot of the online stores also have the thermal underwear available too. Delivery charges are worthwhile not to have to run outside to run from store to store. In the meantime, I have a blanket when I am sitting down and two pairs of old socks to stay warm.
Well, no wonder these Merino wool socks are a bit pricey, up to $11,000 for a ram…
