She contacted the labor board and long story short after about a year and a half she won a settlement which ended up being substanially less than her loss but was able recoup about half of what she lost and was able to take a statement from the labor board to the back to reinstate her bank account. Luckly, she has a mom who doesn't always expect loans to be repaid.
Originally Posted By WDWdreamin I was wearing: a long-sleeved t-shirt, a sweater, long pants, socks, and a pair of those soft warm feet thingies over the socks. I had two blankets on, and still could not sleep for the cold. I need to find my own place soon.

They are considerably less expensive than a comforter, and even the very thin ones are amazingly warm and toasty. I was astounded at how much warmer they are than regular comforters and blankets.
Originally Posted By RockyMtnMinnie I LOOOOVE my down comforter. We need to replace our windows, so our bedroom gets pretty chilly in the winter, but I sleep nice and warm.
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Love me the down comforter! But wait, we're angry here. It angers me to be without my warm down comforter on a cold night.
Originally Posted By WDWdreamin lol guys, as soon as I stop staying at this friend's and can assess the temperature in MY bedroom, I will consider the down bedding. I get itchy with some down things though. Are the imitation-down ones just not as good? While here, I added another blanket folded in half so it's twice as thick over me, and I slept through all of last night comfortably! Anger. grr!
