    yup, cold all the time, a
    yup, cold all the time, a little better now that I've gained a few pounds, but I still use an electric blanket to keep warm when I'm watching tv or reading...I warm up the bed with one too for about an hour before i go to bed. Ahhhhh..what luxury
    ps: my pet pug can't stay away from me when I have the blanket on, just cuddles up next to my leg and snores away...if I get up..she's in my place...an added comfort.
