I love the cold only if it's accompanied with snow......I hate the cold moist weather because it makes it feel even colder. I don't weigh enough to have any reasonable insulation so I always run cold even in the hot summer.
The cost of running my heat pump is exorbitant so I keep the huge house at 65F....but I have a room heater in my bedroom & in the bathroom & that works well.
I do prefer cold to hot because I dress in layers....always have. I grew up & lived in the hot California desert & always wanted to vacation in the winter to my cold slow skii areas....but have to admit...my body would go into shock when flying to Jackson Hole WYO from California....going from 80F to -40F was a shock to my body...but after 2 weeks of living in the cold it was hard to go back to the hot winters of California.
Love where I live now....we get enough snow to really enjoy yet not enough to cover my home & have to dig out. I can wait a few days & not have to even shovel snow but get to play around in it & hike through my woods in the snow with my dogs....but I always have my layers to keep warm.
Have found now that I am on a lower dose of pain medication for my migraines (migraine med doesn't work) the cold does trigger the migraine so I'm not as likely to be going out in the cold without head covering this year.....& I always have to have my mittens on.....cold hands & my whole body is frozen.
