Well, I hope I have spent my last night sleeping under too many heavy covers which were not warm enough! Today we bought ourselves an alternative poly-fill comforter, very lightweight and promising to be warm. We even splurged and got the duvet cover for it which was actually more expensive as the former was on sale. The cats, so far, love the cover and it felt quite nice when I napped under it. The comforter isn't exactly what I would like for design etc., but it fits the decor, such as it is, well enough. I didn't want to buy without physically seeing it, so online was out. I'll let ya know more tomorrow morning. Thanks for all of your help!
