I couldn't even keep my eyes open!

By the end of the week it's supposed to be nice again, around -5C (23F).

Judy, in the fall it seems really cold when it's around that temperature, but after a long cold winter, as soon as it gets above the 0 degree mark I can go outside in a t-shirt no problem lol.

Maddie, I feel the same way about cold snowy Christmases! As long as I don't have to be outside

You do acclimate! I run around without a coat when it's in the 40's, and even (very) high 30's. Once it gets down to close to freezing though, out comes the jacket. I would not dream of wearing my down coat yet though. It's way too hot!

Stay warm!!!
