Try looking for a pair of gloves that has open fingertips. That should help. | |

I have a pair of those gloves My DH thought I'd lost it when I bought them this fall, but they are now a favorite. Maybe that should be my picture of the day!
Stupid winter

Hi Shan! I'm sorry your hands are frozen! I've been know to drape my electric blanket over my scrap chair and then plug it in. Even though my hands are out, I'm still fairly warm. Or, I wear my big fluffy bathrobe over my clothes. As you can imagine, it's very flattering!  | |

I think those are called texting gloves, and you need them! | |

Follow up comment... I said I was cold while sitting here at the computer, so my son came and draped a blanket over my shoulders!  | |

Jan--I wear my bathrobe over my clothes all the time too. I am almost always cold in my house. Even though we don't have as cold of a winter as many of you do, the houses aren't built with the intention of cold weather at all--crappy wall electric heaters. So our house is often at 60-65 degrees depending on if I can manage to get the various heaters in sync to even get it that warm. | |

Terry, I LOVE that picture!! I'm thinking that I may need to take one of my fingerless gloves in action this week since it is -7 degrees here today But mine are not nearly as cool as those.  | |

We are having a cold snap here. It is NOT -7 though like Janelle's weather so I guess I can't complain. I did read that it will probably get down to zero tonight. Those fingerless gloves are looking good, especially since I am considering turning the heat down a little more to save on oil. I am CONSIDERING it!  | |
