Winter Clothing

[motivated]

I wanted to know what type of clothing you will be sporting this winter with the gas bills that are supposed to increase.
I will be wearing the usual flannel or cotton long johns with lace under the jeans skirt or jumper. Sometimes I like to wear t shirts with long john tops underneath the layers keep me warm.

I usually wear sweatpants with long johns underneath, and a tee shirt with a sweatshirt. And I always wear hunting socks. I love hunter's clothing! They make them nice and warm.

My plan is to start out with warm fuzzy slippers (sheepskin) - add socks when necessary, jeans, longsleeve undershirt with sweater and a fleece on
top if necessary and drink lots of hot tea. I might have to add some long johns too!

We moved to a rural community and rented a house un-seen while our's is being built and we have found out it is the coldest house in town (maybe why
it wasn't rented)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my feet are usually the coldest part of my body so I always wear socks and sheep skin slippers or booties. I always wear jeans or sweats and a sweatshirt. If I get cold I have plenty of oversized sweaters that will fit over anthing I have on.

My summer and winter attire rarely change. The usual jeans and a tee-shirt work well for both seasons, however, I might add a long sleeved flannel shirt in the winter. As for my sleeping arrangements, I wear the same for summer as winter, my birthday suit. By the way, winters aren't that rough here in central Kentucky.

For work nothing changes since they keep it reasonably warm (and if it gets too cold I just put on my coat). At home - sweats, afghans, and little wheatberry filled bags that I warm up in the microwave (they don't last forever, but are so warm that it's wonderful!)

My most useful piece of winter clothing is a pair of insulated Carhart coveralls. I wear them out to do barn chores with just my regular clothes underneath, wool socks, work boots, and a nice warm hat to stay toasty warm even in temps below zero. Indoors I'm never without my old ratty house sweater and shearling lined elkskin mocs.

Winter brings out the heavy duty stuff.5:00 am. fluid checks and startups at the bus yard calls for wool socks, hiking boots, longjohns under the jeans, long sleeve Tee under the sweatshirt/ sweater/flannel shirt.Thinsulate lined leather gloves and an assortment of hats and scarves i've made over the years. Evenings I like my old down slippers that my sis gave me for X-mas a few years ago. They're not much good for walking around in but sure are toasty. Everyone here has their own afghan that I made them years ago in the colors of their choice.

My problem is gloves. I have poor circulation to my fingers and they get cold easily. I have tried thinsulate gloves and they work ok but my fingers still get cold. I have used mittens and found they were a little better than gloves but not a a whole lot. Any suggestions?
