Trying to Stay Warm

First up: hot tea ten times a day. Luckily the stove works and there's hot water for washing. This could be worse!






Next up: creating a warm spot. Nana's down comforter was wonderful. Dad also suggested lighting candles (amazing, they really do create a little warmth) in a closed-off room, Adanna putting hurricanes on the candles for safety and journaling the experience. They were amazing support on the phone in so many ways!






I built an 'igloo' for Lady, covering her crate with two blankets and a down comforter. She was a real trooper for three long days confined to her dark covered crate. She was warm, though! Toivo liked her spot on top, too, when she wasn't cuddled on my lap.











Some times, though, Lady could stand the crate no longer and if there were a warm spot in the sun, I'd move her bed.
