Coping with the heat

I am extremely heat sensitive and it's really hard to get through the summer. I have central a/c, curtains drawn, drinking lots of water, and I still feel awful. I have fibromyalgia and blood marker for lupus, not to mention perimenopause. How are you dealing with the heat? I get so tired of complaining but I'm miserable!

I live in SoCal, btw..

1. When I'm in a flare, I literally do not sweat.

It helps a lot to wear a water soaked bandanna around my neck.

Also - I don't go outside between 10 and 4 if I can help it, and I always wear a sun hat.

2. Thanks..

for the bandana idea. Yeah, I try to stay in until evening if possible. Sunscreen and a hat, linen clothing...

5. when it is really hot, i wrap a couple ice cubes in the bandana.

silk works best. easy to find silk scarves at the thrift shop.

6. this may sound silly but if I have to go out in really hot weather, I fill a very small ziplock bag with several ice cubes and tuck it inside my bra. It works.

^^oh my.

3. It's been a disgusting summer.

I'm in the high desert in NM and a persistent easterly flow of air around the high pressure area that cut off the rain to the corn belt has given us superheated air from Texas all summer.

I have an evaporative cooler but it's on its last legs so I don't use it much, just to cool the dump down in the evening so I can sleep.

I have a small fan at the puter. When I get up and walk away from the breeze, I melt. Mostly I sit and read and fool around on the computer and hope the hell the easterly flow breaks down for a couple of days so we can get our monsoon rains back instead of having them shoved into Arizona all summer. When I start getting woozy, I go soak my head and let the evaporation of wet hair cool me down. It works, by the way.

This must be the kind of thing that destroyed the Anasazi people, piss poor rainfall meaning piss poor harvests.

I'm getting so I dread summer. I hate this heat.

4. Unplug any non-nessesary appliances..

use lamps sparingly. CFS/Halogen give off less heat.

We put mylar on the windows this year available at Carol Wright.com and others. It dropped the temperature in our apartment 5 degrees.

Work in the morning and after dark if possible. Wash dishes and laundry after 10pm. Cook early or late and reheat or eat cold foods.

Park in the shade if you can. Keep car windows down 1/2 inch to vent heat. I had one of those solar powered window vents that helped but every time someone would ride with me they would forget, open the window and it would end up smashed on the pavement.

Even if you have AC. A small fan can make a difference in your personal space.

7. distraction?

I am in the habit of going to the library when a heat wave is coming, and stocking up on books and DVDs.

I also know that I feel cooler if my space is clean. Nothing makes me feel hotter than a messy house.

Hmm
 I go to work on boilers that are 180 degrees and come home and can veggies. I sweat a lot and then cool off in the evening with a ride on the MC!

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

What the contradiction here is that the pie-and-jam primitive wears three or four winter coats even during the hottest days of the year, when she's dragging around that child's little red wagon collecting junk from garage sales.

Maybe if she took off a couple of those coats, she wouldn't get so hot.

Even disguised by three heavy overcoats, it was obvious that wasn't all grasswipe Judy.

Now we know the poor addled DUmmy enhances her figure with ice bags.

And please, please don't mention grasswipe Judy and hard nipples in the same post.

Nice to be a college educated conservative with a good job, married to the same.

See, when it gets hotter than Hades down here, we just turn on our central A/C in the house we saved for, and enjoy. Since we're part of an energy co-op, our bills are low, even with the temp. turned down in the low 70's.
