What will it take?
Okay, I'm wearing special insulating socks; over that, a pair of hunting socks; over that, a pair of slipper socks; and over that, a pair of big fuzzy slippers. I've got on sweatpants. I'm wearing a long-sleeved turtleneck; over that, a knit shirt; over that, a wool sweater. And I have my moaboa wrapped around my neck. The thermostat in my study is turned up to 70°, and I have a wool lap robe wrapped around my legs. But my nose and toes are icy, and the house is cracking in the cold. What will it take to warm up? I don't think human efforts can accomplish the task. I'm afraid only Monday's forecast high of 20° will. When it's -18° outside, it's just not possible to get warm inside.
