Crank up the portable heater, the cold is coming........

This is a sponsored post



Snow had hit Montreal a few times in the last few weeks and although it's not knee deep yet, it's a small reminder that winter is heading our way.

It has been jumping between + and - but weather forecasts are indicating that a freeze is imminent.

I love being out and about but am finding less wish to leave the house and although the heating here is sometimes put a little high I am glad we have it.

Just a few weeks ago when it first started to drop temperature the heating had broken for a while and I really hope it does not happen again. I think I would have to go and live in a 24 hour coffee shop if it breaks again.

I live in a house shared with four others. I share a room with my partner and everyone else has their own space. We are all adequately heated (well as I said maybe it's a bit high sometimes but I don't feel the cold so much as others). The main lounge area does have a radiator but it is slightly too large to heat well. Luckily the landlord has wheeled in a portable gas heater so the room feels very warm and cozy even though just on the other side of the window it's a different story.

I must say though that the snow does look really pretty but it is in the process of melting completely and has become slush that billows into waves of ice when the cars zoom through it.

Hopefully we will receive beautiful fluffy snowman worthy snow in the next few days. It will make the cold more worthwhile.
