Tips for living with cold weather
Forums:
A balmy 16 degrees here.
1. Heated mattress pad. Fckin awesome. Like an electric blanket but under you, instead. (I'm only slightly worried about getting electrocuted -- figure I would have read about it if these things were hazardous.)
2. Heated car seats. Before I got a car with built-in heated seats, I had one of those temporary ones that plugged into cigarette lighter (do kids still call it that?) --- it worked.

That's funny six. I grew up in Florida and people still sometimes ask me why I moved away from all the warm weather.
When I lived in Wyoming, I had to have an engine block heater installed in my Jeep to ensure it would turn over when it got down below zero. You would use an extension cord to plug into an electric cord hanging out of the grill. When I would take the Jeep back to Florida to visit, most people didn't know what the cord was and seriously thought it was an electric vehicle.
