And the stove was naturally turned down a bit for the night, so on frigid nights I crawled between flannel sheets and had at least 3 heavy quilts on top of me, plus a chenille bedspread. It took awhile for the sheets to warm up, and then you didn't dare move out of that spot! I had two big windows in my room that didn't help either, and the old farmhouse was not insulated at all. I am cold just thinking about it!Loritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15570346408282598440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290836394516314441.post-86295955648391796072014-02-07T10:58:31.226-06:002014-02-07T10:58:31.226-06:00Love the quilt / don't love leaky water heater...Love the quilt / don't love leaky water heaters...it's good that you found the leak early on! <br /><br />I have ceiling fans like that ( or similar, where I have to get those blades every few months or so...I'll have to try the pillowcase trick the next time! :) Deb @ Frugal Little Bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13091419343402163298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290836394516314441.post-68676867130994335122014-02-07T08:25:43.104-06:002014-02-07T08:25:43.104-06:00I am so happy you discovered the leakage!
