Try 2 pairs of socks, (I always wanted to give a smart a$$ comment) sorry!

Just kidding.

Try rubbing them to get the circulation going again. But a hot bath really does wonders.

What happens in these cold temps is that your body keeps the warmth for your vital organs. It stops or slows the blood flow to your extremities. So, vigorous rubbing or massaging will help restore blood flow to the extremities. A hot bath will help do the same thing.

Some hot pepper (capsaisin) sprinkled in your shoes would do it too but I have to warn you it makes pink socks out of white ones and your feet smell like chili! LOL So maybe a llttle Bengay rub instead?

School is HARD, much harder than I ever expected. We had a test on Thursday, then another one will be on Monday and our comprehensive final on Wednesday. All for ONE class! Well after Wednesday we will be off for a month and then we start our psychology rotation. This last one was geriatrics. Oh, how I never want to get old. I wish I could stay 42 forever!

Install a wood burning stove in your basement.

Cold wood floors (and even cold carpet floors) can suck the heat right out of your feet. On the contrary, warm floors can put the heat right back in.
