LMAO! My bedroom is in the basement now, and I put a Mexican blanket over
it too-yes, doubled<G> When my bedroom was upstairs, I used foil on the
window, it works tres bien. Sadly, our big black walnut that provided so
much shade had to come down, as it was dying, and way too big to just let it
go.
