#Cold weather

[introvertathome]

I'm from the North, but I'm made to hibernate. I can't work in these conditions

Fucked up that you have to go to work during the winter. Should be curled up in a little nest with several months' supply of food stocked up right now.

Tonight is the coldest night we've experienced in Gaza since the beginning of winter. Our children are freezing from the biting cold, with no clothes to warm them, no food to satisfy their hunger, no blankets to cover them, and no walls to shield them.

What is the world waiting for to take action? When will this war and suffering end so that warmth and smiles can return to our lives?

The cold weather makes me look like this 24/7😂

A little man is helping me in the studio. Mostly by not helping, and being a silly little clown baby.

🍪 bake warm choc chip cookies! (the feeling of fresh warm cookies out the oven for you and only you to eat and no one else to take them🤤 that sounds amazing omg)

🍂wear fuzzy socks! getting into bed.. wearing socks omg could it be any better?! the fuzzier, the better🧦

🕯️light candles! light them up around your room to set the mood and actually feel like that it girl and super cozy

🛏️get fluffier pillows & blankets. there is nothing better than sinking into a warm bed with fluffy pillows & blankets. period.

🏰make a blanket fort. just a btw, you can do this alone & have the most fun ever. + you get to do it on your own terms & create it however you want! in the blanket fort make it all cozy, get the cookies or some hot chocolate and cuddle up with your favourite movie/ book 😍🍪

🎶create a specific cozy cold weather playlist and keep it playing in the background. ARGHH MOOD THAT SOUNDS TOO GOOD!! some song ideas: riptide, we fell in love in October, that’s so true, sweet nothing

📔journal. this year is coming to an end. write down all the lessons you learnt, how you grew this year, how you feel, all the changes big & small, what you accomplished, etc.

🎨paint on canvases. okay hear me out doesn’t that sound so cozy?? like it’s raining outside, and you’re just inside painting away. screw being ‘good’ at it. if you need to, gaslight yourself and call it hot girl art.

📖write a mini story, about autumn, about your life, about your feelings, about a girl who goes to a coffee shop and meets the love of her life, about a girl who has the best season ever, inspired by your fav song

Our furnace broke in January during a really bad cold snap in the Midwest, and we went for almost a week relying only on space heaters and hot packs. (And layering, obviously, but still!) It is not an experience I care to repeat, and hope you can get yours sorted out ASAP!

My Furnace Broke :(

Hi kids, it's your favorite storytelling chicken, and my Furnace has decided to die. It also decided to take the A/C unit out with it.

This is both very expensive to fix, and also kind of urgent: the more observant of you may have noticed that it is November, and getting onto winter here in the Rockies.

Look at this little man, huddling on my feet for warmth.

I have *some* emergency funds, but not enough to cover even a temporary fix, and that's also the fund that vet, medical, and car repair bills come out of, all of which I've had too much of this year.

I'm currently pitting four HVAC companies against each other to get the best offer possible, and getting the paperwork done for state subsidies, refunds and other discounts, but I still need your help.

Thank you all, everything you can do helps.

There’s a nasty winter storm that’s going to hit most of the central regions of the US tomorrow (21 December 2022), especially tomorrow night. Please check your local forecasts if you live anywhere east of the rocky mountains, even down as far south as Texas. In some areas of the Plains region, windchill is likely to be -50F to -70F. That is so cold that you will develop frostbite in minutes. You will lose extremities without protection if you are exposed to windchill that cold. -70F is “surface of Mars” cold.

My part of the US is going to be below freezing all next week. This is normal for some. Not so normal for others.

If your area is likely to be impacted by the storm, please prepare now. The most important thing is staying warm and staying inside until things warm up outside. Specific tips I can offer, as somebody who regularly deals with cold winters are:

Put blankets over windows and doors. This will help your house retain heat.

Stay well-fed. Buy food now. You will get hungry faster because your body will burn calories to stay warm.

Stay hydrated. If your lips are chapped you’re probably dehydrated.

Stay dry. Remove wet clothing as soon as possible. It is better to be naked than wet when it is cold.

If it is going to get below freezing for more than an hour or two, run your water at a trickle or drip to prevent your pipes from bursting. The colder it gets the faster your pipes will freeze.

Here’s the weather forecast for this storm:
