Time to hunker down and just figure out how to keep warm. Once warm, time to daydream whilst thinking about the next possible practical steps. Eh?

Don't risk frostbite for the sake of privacy. Go take up space and make a pallet on the living room floor of friends, family or church members if need be for the sake of safety and sanity in such bitter cold. Doubt many would consider it an imposition.

You are sensible grown-ups capable of making the choices that suit you best. We can't help but be concerned for you in this bitter cold and with what you have shared about the difficulties in getting and staying warm in your current living conditions.

Be safe.
