When its below -15 go for a walk in the woods. The trees eliminate all wind; so that there is no wind chill. It's the wind that makes being outside feel so much colder.
We're from Namibia that always has sun. Moving to Edmonton that has a lot less sun, I was like, the sun shines and we need to go for a walk right now. Then my husband would say, no he wants to first finish with what he's busy with and then we can go. Half hour later the sun was behind clouds. And I felt like I could go sit and cry because I missed the opportunity to be in the sun😂. Now it doesn't bother me that much anymore. But it was crazy in the beginning and back then Edmonton received more rain than what it's getting the last few years. Which means more sun for me😊
If you ever want to move within Alberta - Medicine Hat is a small city in the south and we get 330 days of sun! I’ve always known us to be the sunniest city in Canada but google only likes the big cities 😂
Hi! I have super sensitive dry skin too! I live in alberta, during the winter, i have my humidifier going, and i also keep a pot of water steaming on the stove all day long too.
Have you ever tried Dove sensitive skin bar soap for your husband? I know you go for everything organic, but trying this soap might help. I tried organic soap years ago because of sensitive skin. I can't use any soap that has a fragnance. I got such a rash from the organic soap. Went to the doctor and he said it was an allergic reaction. I didn't link it to the soap until I dropped the organic soap and switched to Dove sensitive skin. Only then did the rash disappear.
A lot of South-Africans and for that matter, Namibians, grew up with domestic help. If you are not from there, it might be a weird concept. With unemployment so very high, it has always been a way to provide employment to women who otherwise would not have been able to find work. I didn't grew up in a house where it made financially sense. Anyways, we were 3 girls, so it were us and my mom who did the cleaning, laundry and cooking. Something that came in handy when we mkved to Canada. So it wasn't something new for me. However if you was a family that could afford to provide this employment opportunity to a woman so that she can feed her own kids, why wouldn't you?
Like this comment said - it is a very normal thing where I am from :) Also - not never, just almost never and definitely not as a regular occurrence. Anyways don't worry I am cleaning my house now :)

Oh yes! haha our house now has several humidifiers going through winter. We got a nice big one that covers the downstairs area.
