Better to wear socks and a hat to bed. Remember the old days when they wore bedcaps? It wasn't for beauty. We must find ways to do things with less electricity not more.Mystery Ranchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04050933804542338165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579841961010404630.post-17214862355909469842008-12-08T02:43:00.000-06:002008-12-08T02:43:00.000-06:00We have had the electric blanket out for a month n...We have had the electric blanket out for a month now.

I also have a feather bed on our mattress, as well as a feather comforter - so we turn on the electric blanket about 1/2 hour before we crawl into bed...toasty warm! But I usually turn them off for sleeping, because with all those feathers it can get too warm - I don't like to be too hot at night! :)Stacy Uncorkedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10084619026794128825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8579841961010404630.post-47292659647009327102008-12-05T09:37:00.000-06:002008-12-05T09:37:00.000-06:00I used to have an electric blanket and I liked it ...I used to have an electric blanket and I liked it a lot.
