I think that cold-wise, I’ve hit rock bottom. It finally happened. At no time before in my life I had to resort to this, but today marks the day.
It isn’t even that cold outside. -2C or something… but I’ve just had enough. I hate the fact that when I go to bed it takes me an hour to actually get warm. Or the fact that the only thing that actually gets me warm these days is a hot shower. Never mind that our CV is merrily warming the house. It just isn’t enough. My hands and feet are eternal clumps of ice.
So I did the unthinkable. I dug up the thermo underwear that I wore in the Ardennes a couple of years ago. And now I’m all toasty and warm
I have exactly the same problem. Yesterday I spent a day outside and I just could NOT get warm when I got back home. I had to resort to taking a bath to warm up my feet and legs.
I’m actually resorting to wearing tights under my pants *cringe*. And I’m thinking of buying Uggs. Ugh.
I’ve been wearing knee socks for ages already, and taking a hot water sack with me to bed every night.
But still, this is better then rain…
Definitely. I’ve also noticed how much better I’ve been able to stand the darkness because of the snow. Everything is so much lighter outside
