I'd like some heat please!

We're finally out of the 20 below zero (F) temps and just above 0. Now, my furnace isn't working right. This is the first time I've had a digital program box to control the furnace so I changed the batteries and messed with the program. Well, it's still only 62 degrees in my house. The repair man comes this afternoon. Hopefully my parrots don't freeze before then. My husband sent me an email the other day when it was cold. (These temps are normal but since we had such a mild winter up till now it seems to be hitting people harder.) I thought it was funny: We are huddled together for warmth in my office. Boome [one of the cats] is so cold that he actually jumped into my arms off the floor [he's handicapped and not cuddly]. Then he drooled in my ear. Not on my ear. IN my ear. We are burning post-its for additional heat. I think the drool in my ear is turning to ice. It's so cold that the cats teeth chatter when they meow. It's kind of a "me-ow-ow-ow-ow-I'm-cold" sound. It's so cold the oven needs an oven. It's so cold that hell called to ask if they could borrow a couple logs. Its' so cold that the butter has to be defrosted. It's so cold that when I tried to start the Blazer it just said "Uh-uh." It's so cold that I had to move all the food out of the freezer so I could find a warmer place to sit. It's so cold that I think Kelvin just got negative. It's so cold that I saw a squirrel skin a rabbit for it's pelt. It's so cold that I heard the driveway his "..s-s-save yourself..." when I tried to shovel it. It's cold.

I live in Naples, FL, and when the temp falls below about 65 degrees F here (about 18 degrees C), people act like they are freezing to death. The coldest it ever gets here is in the upper 30's (F - about 3 degrees C), and when it hits that, people act like the world is coming to an end. I am originally from farther north (who in Florida isn't), and it is too funny to watch. :laugh: I actually look forward to the "cold" days of winter down here. Cheers,
