I'm so glad frigid temperatures like this do not last long here in metro Atlanta. I feel bad for those suffering through even more severe weather during this polar vortex.
A friend of mine, a New Yorker, posted these helpful reminders on a professional listserv we belong to:
Layers, layers, everyone. You MUST wear a hat outdoors. Heat escapes from the top of your head. Line your boots with newspaper for extra insulation. If you have long underwear, WEAR IT! Silk glove and boot warmers (found at ski shops) are great. Use lip balm.
Put dog booties on your pups. I'm not talking pampered dogwear here. The ice gets between their foot pads and it's very painful for them. If they won't tolerate booties, bring a small hand towel on your shortened walks. Make sure snow doesn't get packed between their toes. [Here in Atlanta, just helping keep their feet warm with booties would be a good idea.]
Wear socks with slippers in the house. Keep your chest warm by wearing a vest indoors. If you wear it open, you won't get too hot.
Provide lots of extra water for your pets. Radiator heat in particular can be very drying.
Be very careful with your space heaters. (Keep them at least 15" away from bedksirts, long drapes, and newspaper and magazine stacks.)
Oh, I know this would never happen to one of you, but always check your clothing dryer before you turn it on. Warm laundry is very inviting to some of our four-legged family members, particularly on colder days. And sometimes they burrow deep.
If you have heart conditions, are pneumonia prone, had joint replacement or have arthritis, please stay indoors.
After my epidural steroid shot on the 30th, I'm feeling considerably better, though even before the shot I'd been improving due to the nerve pain medicine I'm on or the chiropractic treatments I've been getting (thanks, Danny, for the referral). I'm still getting tingling or a sense of pressure in my leg and sometimes pain in my groin, but I'd say it's discomfort of 3-4 on a scale of 10, versus the initial pain of 8-9 I felt when this first presented at the end of October. I know the injection will wear off one of these days, but meantime I'm not doing anything stupid and am enjoying just relaxing. I have no transcription or editing work at the moment, and that is helpful, too.
I hope you are doing well, and I extend my best wishes to you for a healthy new year filled with love and joy.
Zoe Bear is doing well, even coping with these frigid temperatures when she has to go outside to do her business. She has her up and down days (as do I), but most days are as good as they can be. Thanks to all for caring about her.
