Cold

So, I want to expand on the climate a little. Its not super cold here, nights get around zero and days get into the 50´s at times. This is normal back home and I would never think that this is an extreme circumstance...however, the cold is inescapable..litterally. I realized the gravity of the situation when I questioned the family about leaving the milk out on the counter all the time...they responded with the fact that in the winter its ok because it doesn´t get warm enough to spoil..we used this theory back home but it was with beer and we left it OUTSIDE becuase that is where it is supposed to be cold..not where we sleep. So, I am getting used to it but it is sobering when you realize that you could very possibly be cold for a very long time....like 3 months. A lot of public buildings have heat so I usally go out during the days to cafes etc. Its also strange that in the house, they do have some propane fired heaters (expensive for them to run) but then they always seem to leave the doors wide open...I don´t get it. But I now own slippers for the first time in my life and have been wearing dirty long underwear for about a week becuase I don´t want to give them up for the day that it would take to wash and dry them. I am now going to crawl into bed where i can stay toasty warm.
