If you are in the US right now, you are likely experiencing either very cold weather or unbearably cold weather. Having lived in the Northeast most of my life, I love winter and don't mind the cold. But the current cold spell is particularly bone-chilling between the erraticness of the temperature (it was over 50 degrees last week!) and the sometimes howling accompanying winds. With my puppy coach still requiring outings occasionally, I cannot simply stay inside and wait it out. Without the snow, the cold is just the cold with the accompanying ice of the streets, cold permeating the insulated glass, and a feeling of fatigue from the extra energy to stay warm. With my sweater and down vest on, I have been thinking about what I can learn from the challenge of bearing the cold. I understand there are other parts of the world far frostier than here, but the experience of cold is somewhat relative, so here is what I've got.
