Temperature drop

My feet start freezing when the leaves start falling and don't warm up again until May.
I do enjoy the cozy throws and footies though.

I'm the same way. Undershirt, turtleneck, and fleece jacket - that's my uniform for at least 7 months of the year - inside! I found some slippers that are heavenly, and as soon as I'm in the door, they're on....mmmm.

Here in Colorado it was over 60 degrees today, but tomorrow we're supposed to wake up to 20. I let the dogs out about 6:00 tonight - still balmy. I actually said goodbye to Fall.  A couple of hours later, the wind was howling - and it's a COLD one! We're supposed to get at least 2 inches of snow, too. Ugh.

I never can wait till February. Then we're on the upswing toward the good time of year!

I have the warm t-shirt material sheets on our bed, and added a light-weight blanket last night. BF is always hot, so he threw the blanket on me sometime around 3 AM.

Here in the Mid-Atlantic we are overcast around 55 or so. But the chill doesn't set in until 4:30 or so.

It doesn't even get that cold here in Florida but I still freeze!  I'm already using two blankets at night and pretty soon the socks will have to come out.  UGH

I've been nursing my pneumonia so I shower and put a pair of flannel pj's on with knee socks, a cardigan sweater and a fleece robe over that and fleece blanket worn as a shawl, carrying around my bed buddy.
Can't seem to get warm enough!

I could be the perfect candidate for the show...What not to wear :)

I don't care for cool/cold weather. My body temp is always low, so when it gets chilly outside, my temp seems to drop even more. According to CSI, I'm probably 3 hrs dead. 

I have flannel sheets on my bed yr round. They are softer on my skin, the regular sheets are just so irritating to my skin. I also have my quilts on the bed. When I sit on the couch or rocker, I have an afghan or quilt around me. My little Pomapoo likes to sit on my lap at night, under the quilt. And he does add layers of warmth. lol

Robin, I'm sorry to hear that you are sick. Hope it passes soon. I hate when I can't get warm enough. I hope you can get warm & cozy tonight, so you are able to rest and get better.

God bless. Alice.

I love autumn too. The colors, the smells, Thanksgiving, Christmas coming up... Wonderful time of year.

But I completely understand on the temperature. My problem is my thermostat is just plain broken. One minute I'll be burning up and sweating, then 2 mins later I'll be freezing and just can't get warm no matter how many more layers I put on or warm tea I drink. I even got an electric blanket for the sofa so I can snuggle under that, a fleece blanket, and the dogs to try and warm up.

And this is all year round. Really doesn't matter what the temps are outside or inside. Everyone around me is perfectly comfortable and I'm burning up, freezing, or both at the same time! Anyone else experience the burning up core/torso and freezing limbs, hands and feet?

Have and blessed day!

Yep. I am on a med that is a sweater, meaning it makes me sweat. It's better, obviously, in the fall and winter, but can still be horridly embarassing. But, then, the opposites happen very quickly-hot and rolling in sweat, then freezing again, the extremities. -sigh-

Txcola...a bed buddy is a microwaveable moist heat heating pad...bed buddy is the brand name. You can find this type of heating pad at most pharmacies or at Walmart, Target or other big box stores. You can also make them by filling a tube sock with uncooked long grain rice and sewing it up or knotting it.

Moist heat really helps with relief...if you have the time, soaking in a hot bath provides good relief too.

I have the same I bundle up have a lot of fleece & flannel PJS. then layer and mid section hot.  If I have a hot flash face & arms sweat air moves I freeze it's sometimes like my body goes into a shiver and a big body cramp.  Raynaud's hands and feet but my arms neck legs get cold too.  My husband is WARM in the summer the AC @ 76 I FREEZING I have my blanket on the couch.  He has the window open if it's 45 outside.  Had a nice Thanksgiving ate some Great food and visit with family & friends.         

Irish~ LOVE IT! According to CSI, you're 3 hours dead.... bahahahahaha... but you are right!

Hands and feet are ice cubes all the time, and when I go to bed I have to tuck my jammie legs into socks so they don't ride up at night and leave my legs cold! The other night I had on fleece socks, I got into bed, and 1/2 hour later I put my foot on his leg..he said he felt the ice cubes on my feet THRU my socks and HIS jammie pant leg! lol...
What I have a hard time with is when I am sick or have an infection, the doctors don't understand that I don't spike those lovely 101 temps. but I DROP to 95-96. Guarantee when that happens that I get sick within 24 hours.
ANd I have a scarf that is really wide, it is perfect for around my shoulders to keep upper body warm.
the rice packs are great :)

Our propane tanks is empty so my fireplace has been off for two days. Eek! I cannot get warm!!! Between that and the holidays, I am in a flare now. :(

Brrrrrr.
