Sometimes life throws us snowballs and our hands And Toes Freeze Sometimes we Must find heat To Melt! Necessity Is the mother of invention Truely My heat failed About 4-6 weeks ago 62-68 degrees Human body 98 30 degrees cooler Brrr ... -20 outside It's been quite difficult To bare The burden Daily Colder Almost unbearable Finally my house Came to the top Of the list for repairs They ripped out My old furnace system Yesterday! Only space heaters Ugh! Yesterday was tough At night I woke up frozen Wanted hot soup But too cold out there Got back under the Covers with a 3rd blanket Body stinging w pain My fingernails & Toenails N Pain Like military Germany field cold days Ugh! I put a thermophore Moist heating pad Across my chest Cranked it up As high as I could Stand It! Tucked My hands Between my Sweatshirt And The Heating Pad Creating A Kangaroo Pouch Hot This way My palms feel heat & The top of my hands Hot Toasty Warmth Aaahhh! Now How do I spell relief? K a n g a r o o Pouch! THERMOPHORE Moist Heating Pad Has A Chammy Sleeve 27x12 ? Rachael_0622

Rachael, I have never experienced it that cold. About - 9 C (including wind chill factor) is The coldest I have felt it in Oz. Well tomorrow, here in Sydney, it is going to be 41 C. It was 48 C, in Sydney's West, a week or two ago. A world of contrasts hey? Your poem really made me "feel" that cold. Stay warm, hang in there!
