So cold

[Globetrotter 1,340]

I live and work here in Iraq, I'm a Department of the Army Civilian, deployed with US Forces.

I'm so cold all the time! How long does this last?

I'm 1 year out and still freeze! Today I'm wearing my uniform, a coverup, a hoodie, my parka, gloves and ear covers, the heat is blasting in my car and i feel just right FOR NOW. . . the temperature outside this morning is 34F. . . . go figure. . . I year ago I would have the A/C going and a fan in my office!

Ok, this is starting to make sense -- yesterday it was 110 here in Asunción, Paraguay and I was VERY comfortable. That NEVER would have happened in the past.

In fact on Sunday, we had friends over to watch the Packer v. the Eagles (go Pack!) and everyone else was dripping (it was 75 in the house with the AC) and I was completely content.

I have been lucky that I had surgery before summer started down here -- not so sure how I'll feel when winter starts in April. sigh.
