This winter, I'm finding it more tricky than ever to stay warm at night. Being home for the holidays, where my bed is directly under a large window with another directly opposite, and no other suitable spot for my bed, a cross-breeze chill is almost entirely unavoidable.
Short on time to start draft-proofing my bedroom ahead of Christmas, I realized there was one simple fix I was somehow forgetting – the heated mattress pad that got me through four years of college in frosty Edinburgh, Scotland.
