This sounds like the classic ISV clogged up with stuff. I would take it off car(2 minutes work) and get some carb cleaner and spray it all out. Work it back and forth a bit. You'll see black crud in there. My S6 was doing the same thing and this solved it.

etc.  The idle starts droping below normal and then the car eventually 
stalls - just started happening today in our zero degree weather here 
in Ft. Collins this evening.  I can keep it from stalling by keeping the 
revs up while stopped but it is a bit of a pain.   Is there a quick 
inexpensive fix?  Is it the ISV?  any advice would greatly appreciated.  
Had the alternator replaced about 6 months ago and the battery is fine.  
Car has 230,000 miles on it.
