Will I ever feel warm again?


I don't think I have ever lived anywhere where the temps dropped below zero, ever! I can handle, 30 degrees, even 20 degrees, and even sometimes single digit temps., if they don't last very long (say, maybe one night?). But the temps are so cold here now that as soon as I walk out the door, my fingers feel numb!

Because of the below zero temps and the strong freezing winds, the snow that we had about 2 weeks ago, still has not melted, and is more like a frozen, icey concrete, than a pretty fluffy snow. It makes it kind of difficult to hike up to the barn so we can feed the llamas and then smash the ice in water buckets. But when you have livestock, you can't stay all cozy inside a warm house. They need you to join them in the frozen tundra to care for them.
I think I'd be warmer if I could borrow their thick wooly llama fleece.

BRRRR!!
