I love to use my hurricane lamp and candles not only for heat but also for light. I wasn't feeling safe after adding the blanket the other night so I found an old mirror that was left behind upstairs and polished it up and put it behind the dresser. (when I say old, I mean actual antique mirror. It's painted with silver on the back) Not only does it hold the blanket back at a safe distance, it also makes the light brighter.
Fuzzy, our cat, has a bad habit of using the bed as a litter box when she isn't getting her way. Part of it I think is she is lonely because she mostly only sees us at night when we are sleeping. I used the last of our clear plastic (we bought for the windows) and pieced it together to make a cover for the bed. I'm going to see how she behaves now. Hopefully she is good and doesn't find someplace else to be naughty.
One half was a little extra long and I had another piece left over from something else, so I pieced them together. It fits nicely here in the corner by the window where thee blankets don't meet. I just tucked it in over the rails. It's behind the dresser and there is a box fan holding the other side.
Slowly making progress. I have 1 more "wall" to make. I have been able to keep it about 20 degrees warmer in our "tent" than the temperature outside. Every little bit helps.
