Am just venting about how amazed that people live in these temperatures and lower . At -5 without windchill factor it just feels bitter cold outside , with the help of some kind folk in here have managed insulate myself adequately .
With Warming procedures am quite glad . That am so blessed right now as to have a roof over my head , more so tonight than other warmer nights . The thermometer does not go much lower .
Am now getting to a point , where I might consider ,freezing temps at 32 F a warm day , I know this has got to let up soon . Please pardon my venting. but now I have good reason not to interact with humans nor them with me , in real life . Virtual interactions are just pleasing as can be during these frozenburg temps.

It’ll start getting warmer where you are by Wednesday or Thursday.

This is when I wish you had a partner to help you get cozy.

Thank you kraftie. TV news here says it will get up to freezing temperatures . Am keeping my fingers crossed .

-5°F / -21°C ... Brrr, that's cold!

Right about now am wishing I was a penguin......I have no contingency plan .. wind chill are said to be in minus 30F
Wish had my head about me when this started would have done better winter preparation .

Is your house warm enough? Are you at risk of running low on food?

With clothes and bathrobe and warm but I keep wanting to hide under blankets 3 cans of stew and 2 hard boiled eggs . 2 bottles of protein powder 15 blueberries , coffee and 4 bagels. Small tub of butter. Little cream cheese.
Afraid car door maybe frozen shut , it is 30 ft to the car . Trying to think where I might have any more canned food ?
Thank you for causing me to think about these things .

Here, things run as usual in -22C but not everywhere the infrastructure is adapted to functioning in low temperatures - and not everywhere people own right clothes (even if very old, buried deep in some wardrobe corner, pulled out once a 3 years or so).

Brrrr. We had a cold snap last week too, though it wasn't as bad as yours is. Take care of yourself!

Thank you had been considering any place in this old place that might locate something similiar to a snow suite .
Not sure where they might be stored have located a heavey coat made for very cold weather . And have a lighter fur lined cap . Mittens I have are not for heavey snow fall or deep freezes . Only have one pair of thermal socks , pretty well worn out ... but I getting some use out of them .
Thank you magz
