without wind chill. I just went out to post a letter, and wore FOUR
fleeces, one with goose down stuffing, plus a jacket over the top,
also with goose down. I looked like a walking duvet. Plus heavy
boots, woolen hat, gloves with fingers AND mittens over the top of
them. Takes about 15 minutes to get dressed. No wonder all

Sarah, it is much warmer here oh and so is the weather ;-)... That said, now 500
miles south of where I used to live , it's only -8 this morning but it feels so much
colder .. not sure why that is. any theories out there in winterland?
when I lived in Winterpeg for two years....the cold there was like nothing I had ever
felt before. And dont believe anyone who says it's not as bad because it is a "dry"
cold...it's COLD! With the windchill factor...it was common to find the temps crashing
down around -50 to -60 for days and days on end.
I remember being housebound for a whole week with my daughter when she was a wee babe
and finally couldnt take it any more. I bundled up, put her in her snuggly and tucked
her inside my coat and went out for a walk around the block just to get some fresh
air. I got some strange looks but I didnt care!
what amazes me there was the weather network.... they would flash a bright red screen
with warnings that your skin would freeze if you went outside for less than a minute.
nice , eh?
