ok ok that was 2 words, but i love mine!! oh for the kids, extra layers of clothes (the fun bit is stopping them stripping off!)
extra blankets and the heater if it is realy cold, like today!
We have floorboards all through our house and carpets in the bedrooms. We use a wood fire in winter, our house is always nice and toasty. ATM (because I'm slack) I've got hte split system going.
We have tiles in one of our lounge areas and carpet in the other. The one that is tiled has a huge mat and also has the gas wall heater's main vent. So it is pretty warm! There is another small vent that ducts into the carpeted lounge.
Clothes wise, DS wears a snappy crotch singlet to bed as well as socks and long sleeved pjs. He has a winter bag with no blankets. We keep his door shut to help keep heat in. When he was newborn we kept the heater on all night as he was born in winter but we don't now he is older.
We've recently had ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling put in, mainly for airconditioning. But today I switched the heat on for 5 mins to warm up the tiles and it did a great job!
I was just stressing, I think the place i got approved for today has slate tiles, ill have to have another look anyway before i make up my mind, im stressing the loungeroom might be too small
try not to stress over it to much, if you want it to work, it will
we moved from a huge 4 bed place to this small 3 bed, house, but feels more like a unit, i was stressing over my fridge not fitting in the door let alone the kitchen, and the lounge was mega cramped, with strategic furniture placement and swapping certain items, its not to bad, tho i do miss my side by side frige, sitting out there in the garage unused..... (yes i love a fridge, shut up ok!)
try not to think of the possible bad points, but of the good bits and ways you can make it work.
