When I Do Prepare, I Tend To Overdo...

After a decade of absence from the city, I had no idea how the winter here was going to treat me. Early the temperature was hovering around 18 degrees indoor early. By law, the residential buildings’ central hot water circulation heating system would not function until November 15th. I started the heating using our apartment’s own air-conditioning system. As part of the preparation, I bought myself a goose-down vest online. It turned out to be a disaster. The smell made me feel like cuddling with three geese all day long. I went out and spent three times the price for another one. As part of my preparation, I bought the husband an electrical heater... The next day, the heating came. Since then, I couldn’t keep a thin sweater on and it looks like socks aren’t necessary either. Waking up in the middle of the night everyday, I feel like I was in a sauna room. It's a hot winter ahead of us...
