Anyone have any good ideas how to deal with the cold? For us(not for many of you) we have have been cold. In the last few days my hands have just been aching with the cold. I went out this morning 3*, slight breeze to feed the stock and my hands hurt something fierce. I use wool gloves that are heated by the stove before going out so there nice and warm but not hot. That lasts about to the barn. Tried mittens but that didn't work had to take them off to get some of the chores done self explanitory there. By the time I'm done and back in the house I have to use hot water to get them moving again. I pull my fingers inside the main glove when not working so they are close to each other. Color is good, they are cold to the touch not bad though but the knuckles just don't seem to want to work. The wrist is trouble also but nothing like my knuckles. I try to keep them moving by making a fist and opening back up, slow then fast then slow again back and forth. Works for a while then it just gets slower no matter how hard I am trying to keep it going. Their not frozen they just don't want to work worth spit.
I have been is some damn nasty cold before and never had this before. This is new and I can say I don't like it one bit.
I would very much appreciate any thoughts you may have.
