>>5For me, my daily routine doesn't change much, living in the first world has eliminated pretty much all need for preparation. Also the winters where I live have been really soft in the last couple of years it's only troublesome to those that are on the road often and none of the fun that winters can offer.
I wish I lived a bit more consciously, of course going to the supermarket all year round and just turning on all the heaters when it's cold is easy and takes away stress, I also feel dissociated from life.
Interesting though how my, now deceased, grandparents used to live back in the day without electricity or flowing water, a life almost unimaginable for someone like me who grew up with all the necessities in an arm's reach.
