FIELD NOTE 4.48 - Cold feet.

The weather here is still caught between spring and winter. During the daytime the sun shines into my room and quickly makes it unbearable, but 10 minutes after opening the window the room becomes too chilly.

I suppose the rational thing to do is just to not to raise my curtain; however, this idea seems almost impossible for me to entertain, as if shutting out the sun is an unspeakable prospect.

Instead I've come up with creative solution: using the radiator in my room. I find that if I crack the window open and keep my feet on the warm radiator, the cold never becomes too unbearable. I would love to say that I came up with this solution after carefully thinking about the problem - I would love to but this would be a lie.
No, it's much simpler than that.
My feet were cold, the heater was warm and I figured out the rest from there. Either way, though, it works out just as well.
