December checklist

Winter driving.
If the outside temperature is near freezing,
drive like you’re on ice. You may be! Source: weather.gov

Mittens instead of gloves.
Keep hands warmer by wearing mittens. Your fingers touching each other generates more body heat than when inside gloves.

Enjoy safe sledding.
Find a hill that has a long flat area at the bottom; avoid those that end near a street, pond or fence.

Tip of the month.
Hot air rises. Save energy by switching your ceiling fan’s blade rotation to a clockwise direction and pushing that warm air back down at you.
