survival series

more deaths attributed to sub zero temperatures ...

in this day and age no one should die from hypothermia. no one should freeze to death.

me, i worry about pneumonia more than anything. i have no heat besides a little space heater to keep me warm, when i use it. the electric company charged me 548 dollars for the privilege to
keep my lights on. gasoline is 4bucks a gallon here plus. and its only going to get worse. the warmest ive been all winter long was yesterday at the doctors office. us older folks like it warm
so i go to the library to get warm. imagine having to bathe in cold water. its a shock, but hey i want to be clean. that is when the pipes aren't frozen up. I'd live in my truck and ive been working on a radiator for the camper to heat it up if im forced to spend the night in it. ive got a good sleeping bag that needs some sewing. the worst case is dying alone and unloved and worse s deep in debt i owe more than i have.

you have a nice warm place, i live in an unheated trailer. the fire marshal says i cant use my woodstove any more, because it's not up to code...it would take me a year to redo it and about three thousand dollars to put a new roof on this place and bring it up to code.. im lucky they don't condemn this place.
